What is preventative maintenance?
The purpose of preventative maintenance is to ensure that your vehicle continues to run as efficiently as the day you drove it away from the showroom. Our routine maintenance services focus on replacing your wipers, replace spark plugs, distributor caps and ignition wires, replacing air filters, oil changes, hose inspections, battery servicing, tyre pressure checks and tuning, brake fluid flushes, power steering servicing and more.
-
What does my “check engine” light mean?
The check engine light is there to alert you to any issues regarding your onboard diagnostic system and engine. It is not necessarily the engine itself, but any system related to that part of your vehicle. It could indicate an issue with your ignition, emission control or fuel injection systems.
-
What can I do to stop my car overheating?
If you are noticing an overheating issue with your vehicle, it may be time to stop driving until you bring it into our service workshop. We can look over your vehicle and assess the cause of the problem. It is never recommended to keep driving if it overheats, as it could permanently damage your engine and other components.
-
Do I have to get my car serviced at a dealer?
If the vehicle is still under warranty and you don’t have it serviced to the manufacturers maintenance schedule, you may void your warranty. As long as the service is carried out in accordance with the manufacturers specifications ,any licensed repairer can do it , not just the dealer from whom you purchased the vehicle.(As per Fair Trading)
