Car Service Information
Car service helps maintain the good condition of your vehicle. It is important for the safety of your vehicle and your passengers. Here’s what we offer:
Oil and filter change – Regular oil changes keep your engine running smoothly.
Fluid checks – Brake fluid, antifreeze, transmission fluid, and AC coolant are checked and topped up.
AC system inspection – part of the service is checking for leaks, checking coolant levels are optimal, and replacing cabin filters to maintain air quality.
Suspension checks – as part of our interim and full checkups, we inspect and maintain your car’s suspension components.
Checks of belts, brakes, and other elements – squealing belts or brakes can signal the need for replacement. Our mechanics will test the main components and will replace them if needed.
Full service – most of our car service centre make no compromise and prefer full service for their car to be in perfect condition.
