FAQ
What does a general mechanical service include?
A general mechanical service covers a wide range of vehicle checks and repairs to ensure your car remains safe and reliable. It may include inspecting and replacing worn parts such as brakes, clutches, belts, filters, spark plugs, and fluids. Mechanics also assess key systems like suspension, steering, cooling, and electrical components. The exact work depends on your vehicle’s condition, but the goal is to maintain performance, identify early warning signs of issues, and prevent breakdowns.
How often should I book a general mechanical service?
Most vehicles benefit from a general mechanical service every 6 months or 10,000 km, whichever comes first. However, driving habits, vehicle age, and manufacturer recommendations also play a role. Regular servicing ensures small problems don’t escalate into costly repairs, keeps your car fuel efficient, and helps extend its lifespan. If you notice unusual noises, vibrations, leaks, or dashboard warning lights, it’s best to book a service immediately rather than waiting for your next scheduled check.
What are the signs my car needs mechanical attention?
Common signs your vehicle may need mechanical attention include strange noises, difficulty starting, warning lights on the dashboard, poor fuel economy, unusual vibrations, leaking fluids, or reduced braking performance. Even if the issue seems minor, it can indicate a bigger underlying problem. Addressing these symptoms early through a general mechanical service can prevent more expensive repairs and help keep your car safe to drive.
Is a general mechanical service different from a logbook service?
Yes, they are different. A logbook service follows the specific maintenance schedule set by the vehicle manufacturer, often required to keep a new car warranty valid. A general mechanical service, on the other hand, is a more flexible check-up that focuses on the car’s current condition and needs, regardless of warranty requirements. Both are important — logbook services ensure compliance, while general mechanical services address everyday wear, tear, and unexpected issues.
