General Car Servicing FAQ'S

The frequency of car servicing varies depending on factors such as the vehicle’s age, make, and usage.

As a general rule, it’s advisable to follow the manufacturer’s recommended service schedule outlined in your car’s manual. This schedule may include regular time-based intervals, such as every 12 months, or it may be based on specific mileage thresholds.

Adhering to these guidelines helps ensure your car receives the necessary maintenance at appropriate intervals, promoting its performance, reliability, and longevity.

You have the freedom to choose where you service your car, and you’re not obligated to go to a dealership. Independent garages and authorized service centers can also perform routine maintenance and servicing on your vehicle while often offering competitive pricing.

Just ensure that whichever service provider you choose employs qualified technicians and uses genuine or approved parts to maintain your warranty validity.

A standard car service typically includes an inspection of key components such as the engine, brakes, suspension, steering, and tires.

Fluid levels are checked and topped up as needed, including engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid.

Filters may be replaced (e.g., oil filter, air filter), and the technician may conduct diagnostic checks to ensure the vehicle’s systems are functioning correctly.

Yes, it’s essential to adhere to the manufacturer’s servicing schedule, even if your car is still under warranty.

Failure to do so could potentially void your warranty, leaving you responsible for any repairs or maintenance costs.

While you’re not required to have the servicing done at a dealership, make sure that any servicing or repairs are carried out by qualified technicians using approved parts and following manufacturer specifications.

If your car’s service light illuminates on the dashboard, it’s indicating that it’s time for maintenance.

While the exact meaning of the service light can vary between vehicles, it generally signifies that your car requires attention. It’s essential not to ignore this warning, as it could indicate potential issues that, if left unaddressed, may lead to more significant problems down the line.

Schedule an appointment with a qualified mechanic or service center to diagnose the issue and perform the necessary maintenance tasks to keep your car running smoothly.
