How often should I service my car?

Most manufacturers recommend give your car a full service every 12,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first. However, some high-mileage drivers may require more frequent servicing. In between times, an interim service ensures your motor remains in the best possible condition.

What’s the difference between an MOT and a car service?

An MOT is a legal test required annually to ensure a vehicle meets road safety and environmental standards, while a car service is voluntary maintenance to keep the vehicle running smoothly and efficiently. An MOT checks basic safety, while a service is a more in-depth inspection and tune-up.

Can I skip a car service?

While skipping a service isn’t illegal like skipping an MOT, it’s not recommended. Regular servicing helps catch minor issues before they become costly repairs, maintains fuel efficiency, and prolongs the car’s life.

How long does a car service take?

The time varies depending on the type of service. An interim service typically takes 1-2 hours, while a full service may take 3-4 hours. Major services with additional checks may take longer.

Do I need a car service if my car is new?

Yes, even new cars benefit from regular servicing, which maintains efficiency and prevents potential future issues. Following the service schedule also keeps your warranty valid in most cases.

What are the types of car services?

There are generally three types: an interim service, a full service, and a major service. An interim service covers essential checks; a full service is more comprehensive, and a major service is the most thorough, often done every two years.

What happens if I don’t service my car?

Neglecting regular servicing can lead to reduced performance, lower fuel efficiency, higher repair costs, and even breakdowns. It may also reduce the resale value and potentially void warranties in newer vehicles.
