A Team With Years of Experience
A logbook service isn’t just a quick oil change and a stamp. Depending on the schedule, it can include checking brakes, rotating tyres, swapping filters, topping up fluids, testing batteries and more.
Our team has years of hands-on experience, and we know how important it is to spot small problems before they turn into big ones. We’ll talk you through what we find, show you the parts if needed, and give you options — genuine or aftermarket — so you decide what suits your budget and driving.
Even if your car’s out of warranty, following the service schedule keeps it running at its best. Bring it in, and we’ll look after it the same way we do our own cars.
Will I void my warranty by using an independent mechanic?
No, you won’t—as long as the mechanic follows the manufacturer’s logbook requirements and uses parts that meet OEM standards. Under Australian Consumer Law, you can choose your own repairer. The service must be carried out by a qualified technician, the correct procedures followed, and the logbook properly completed. That means you’re free to service your vehicle locally without losing your warranty.
How often do I need a logbook service?
Your vehicle’s service interval is usually listed in the logbook by distance (e.g. every 10,000 or 15,000 km) or time (e.g. every 6 or 12 months), whichever comes first. Sticking to these intervals ensures your car runs smoothly, your warranty remains valid, and small issues are caught early. If you drive in harsh conditions, more frequent servicing may be recommended.
What’s included in a logbook service?
Each logbook service is tailored to your specific vehicle and its service schedule. It can include oil and filter changes, checking or replacing spark plugs, inspecting belts, testing battery condition, inspecting brakes and suspension, topping up fluids, and resetting service lights. The exact items vary based on mileage and vehicle type, and your logbook outlines what’s due at each stage.
