Regular Service

Affordable & best regular car services to keep you safe on the road.

Regular Service in Sunshine North

From $160 + GST

There is a quiet gap between logbook services where most car problems take root. A wearing brake pad, degrading oil, or a slow tire leak can easily turn into a costly repair if ignored. Our regular service is a thorough, multi-point inspection designed to catch these issues early, complete with a full upfront quote before any wrenches are turned.

What We Inspect & Replace

  • Engine Oil & Filter: Complete drain and replacement using manufacturer-specified oil to maintain fundamental engine protection and fuel economy.

  • Fluid Check & Top-Up: Essential checks for coolant, brake, power steering, and washer fluids to prevent easily avoidable internal damage.

  • Brake Assessment: Detailed inspection of pad thickness, rotor condition, and caliper operation across all four wheels.

  • Tire & Battery Health: Pressure adjustments, tread inspection, and voltage testing so your vehicle doesn't let you down on a cold morning.

  • Steering & Suspension: Comprehensive checks for wear, play, or damage to ensure your car tracks straight and handles safely.

  • Basic Diagnostic Scan: Standard practice at every service to catch hidden fault codes before they trigger a dashboard warning light.

The Real Cost of Skipping a Service

Even if your car only does occasional local runs, fluids break down and rubber seals degrade over time. Pushing past your 10,000 km or 12-month interval rarely saves money:

  • Overdue oil loses its ability to lubricate, accelerating wear on highly expensive internal engine components.

  • A completely worn brake pad will gouge the rotor, rapidly turning a standard $180 pad replacement into a $400+ repair.

  • A cracked drive belt that isn't flagged at a service can snap on the freeway, leading to a tow truck call and severe engine damage.

Frequently asked

Regular Service — common questions

How much does a regular car service cost?

Our regular services start from $160 + GST for most makes and models. If our diagnostic checks reveal that your car needs extra work, we will always contact you with a transparent, upfront quote before proceeding

How often does my car actually need a service?

The standard rule for Australian vehicles is every 10,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first. Even if you do not drive 10,000 km in a year, engine oil degrades over time and needs replacing.

Heavy Use (Towing/4WDs): Every 7,500 km or 6 months.

Older Vehicles (10+ years): Every 6,000–8,000 km to monitor aging components.

Short Urban Trips: Every 3 to 6 months, as stop-start driving degrades oil faster than highway driving.

Will I lose my new car warranty if I do not go to the dealership?

No. Under Australian Consumer Law, any qualified mechanic can perform your logbook service and stamp your book, provided they follow the manufacturer's exact guidelines. We perform these services to the highest standard at a fraction of the dealership price, keeping your warranty fully protected.

What is the difference between a Regular, Logbook, and Major service?

Regular Service: Covers the fundamentals (oil/filter change, fluid top-ups, tyre/battery checks, and a safety inspection). Ideal for older cars or maintaining health between major milestones.

Logbook Service: Follows the exact interval checklist set by your vehicle's manufacturer to maintain warranty compliance.

Major Service: Typically occurs every 30,000 to 60,000 km. It includes regular service items plus deeper replacements like air/cabin filters, spark plugs, and brake fluid flushes.

What happens if I just skip my service for a few months?

Skipping a service rarely saves money in the long run. Overdue oil loses its ability to lubricate, accelerating internal engine wear. Small issues like a cracked drive belt or a thinning brake pad can quickly turn into a roadside breakdown or a heavily scored brake rotor, turning a cheap maintenance visit into a costly repair bill.

What payment methods do you accept?

You don't pay until you are happy with the work. We accept EFTPOS, credit/debit cards, Amex, bank transfer, and PayID. If you need to split the cost, we also accept Afterpay, Zip Money, and Humm.

12 Months / 20,000 km Warranty

Every repair is backed in writing. You don’t pay upfront — settle your bill only once you’ve reviewed the completed work and you’re happy.
