There are different types of services, depending how far the car has travelled, and how old it is. The various inspections depend on the service manual. Here is a list of the most common service elements:
It is usually standard for a car service to be carried out at certain mileage intervals, depending on the age of the car. However, if you do not drive that many miles a year, the intervals will be more time dependent rather than mileage dependent. Typically you will need a service at least once a year, if you are not driving enough to hit the mileage intervals. To help maintain your car, many modern cars now show a spanner or similar symbol on the dashboard to notify you when a service is due.

Most cars today have a 3-year warranty on standard parts, and a 7-year corrosion warranty. This can vary considerably, and some car manufacturers choose to offer an extended warranty when you buy a new car.
If your car is still under warranty, it is important that a garage adheres to the manufacturer’s guidelines as per the car’s service manual to maintain its warranty. Servicing specifics and time intervals may vary between makes and models.
By using a quality garage, you ensure that everything is examined properly with the right testing equipment, that you get quality spare parts and that approved fluids are used for topping up. We carry out ongoing quality checks throughout our garages, and they must all continuously meet pre set guidelines, maintain high ratings by car owners, and are VOSA approved for MOT testing.
After the warranty expires, it’s still important to comply with service intervals. Not only does it prevent unexpected problems and expensive repairs, but it also ensures that your car holds its value better.
The warranty remains valid, even if you do not choose an authorised dealer, as long as you can prove that the service intervals and requirements have been met by keeping hold of an up-to-date service log book. This will also be proven by the stamps in your car's service manual that you should make sure to get at every service inspection.
