Inspection & Service

Car Servicing

A car service is a mechanical test of a vehicle that tests that all components are performing effectively. This will help to prolong vehicle life, improve fuel economy and prevent against unexpected breakdowns. Car servicing in Tipton or anywhere in the UK is not a legal requirement, however, it is highly recommended as it gives you chance to monitor and look after parts of your vehicle which are susceptible to wear.

When Should I Have a Car Service?

You should always service your vehicle in accordance with your manufacturers’ recommended service intervals. Some vehicles may not feature this information in the service handbook, and in this case it is advised that you have a car service every 12 months, or 12,000 miles, whichever occurs soonest. For vehicles that frequently drive long distances, it is recommended that you also undertake interim servicing every 6 months or 6,000 miles.

It is easy to fall in to the trap of extending the time between servicing, but leaving it longer than these specified intervals may result in serious damage to the mechanical state of your vehicle and a large repair bill.
