An interim service is recommended every 6 months or 6,000 miles. It covers the essential checks and replacements to keep your car running safely between full services. A full service is more comprehensive and is recommended annually or every 12,000 miles. It includes a thorough multi-point inspection, oil and filter change, fluid top-ups, and a complete review of all major systems. Both services include a stamp in your service book.
Most vehicles benefit from an oil and filter change every 6,000 to 10,000 miles, or at least once a year, whichever comes first. However, we always recommend checking your manufacturer's guidelines. Using the correct grade of oil for your specific engine is essential, which is something we always ensure.
For shorter jobs like oil changes and battery replacements, yes many customers choose to wait. For more involved work, we'll give you a realistic time estimate upfront so you can plan accordingly.
A standard diagnostic scan typically takes between 30 and 60 minutes. If we identify a fault that requires further investigation or a repair, we'll advise you on timescales before proceeding.
Most manufacturers recommend replacing the cambelt every 60,000 to 100,000 miles, or every 5 to 7 years, but this varies by make and model. If you're unsure when yours was last replaced, bring your car in and we'll check it for you. Don't wait until it snaps — a broken cambelt can cause catastrophic engine damage.
