Helpful Car Service Articles
Usually, servicing a vehicle takes between 3 and 5 hours. The time depends mostly on the condition of the car as well as the checklist the car repair shop uses.
In fact, an annual car service includes a whole host of checks to make sure you’re safe on the road! For example, they’ll test your brakes and suspension as well as inspect for any signs of damage or wear from accidents or other mishaps.
In this blog article we will take a look at what are the different types of car service and what dervice would you need for your car?
Frequently Asked Questions About Our Car Services:
What are the different types of car services?
If you don’t know the different types of car service, here’s a quick explanation. You have three options: an interim, full or major service. They all examine various aspects of your car and its operation thoroughly. Each one has unique requirements and provides distinct levels of care for your vehicle. Here is a concise overview of each type of service.
What is the difference between an interim service and a full service?
An interim service is a basic service that covers 28 checks. A full service, on the other hand, is a much more comprehensive, including 22 more checks of your vehicle that covers everything in an interim service, as well as additional items.
Which type of service should I choose?
When it comes to car service, there are two main options: interim and full. Interim car service is typically recommended every 6 months or 6,000 miles, whichever comes first. Full car service is typically recommended every 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. However, these recommendations can vary depending on your specific car model and make. It’s always best to consult your car’s owner’s manual or dealership for the most accurate service interval recommendations. If you’re still unsure, our mechanics can help advise you on which service is right for your vehicle.
Is a car service the same as an MOT?
No, a car service is not the same as an MOT. A car service is a routine maintenance checkup that is performed on a vehicle to ensure that it is running properly and safely. An MOT, on the other hand, is a mandatory annual safety inspection that all vehicles in the UK must undergo.
How Often Should I Take My Car In For Servicing?
It is important to have your car serviced regularly to keep it in good condition and running smoothly. However, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to the question of how often you should take your car in for servicing. Depending on the make and model of your car, as well as your driving habits, you may need to take your car in for servicing more or less often.
