Regular servicing and following the manufacturer’s service manual, is crucial for early issue detection and ensuring the reliability of vital vehicle components. Neglecting annual servicing to save money can lead to poor fuel economy, impact engine efficiency, and potentially cause costly repairs. A well-documented log book service history significantly boosts resale value, while staying alert to warning signs and regular Logbook Servicing helps maintain optimal vehicle performance.
Recommended car servicing is typically every 10,000 kms or 6 months, depending on which occurs first. A major service involves a thorough inspection of your vehicle and is necessary at longer intervals. Although the general guideline suggests minor servicing every 6 months or 10,000 kms, the specific interval may vary based on your car’s make and model. To determine the most suitable schedule for your vehicle refer to your vehicle’s service manual. Regular car servicing addresses issues that arise from infrequent use or short trips such as hardened fluids, oil sludge, depleting batteries, and deteriorating parts.
The primary differences between a minor and major service lie in the scope and depth of the maintenance tasks performed on your vehicle. A minor service typically involves routine checks and basic maintenance, including oil and filter changes, fluid top-ups, and inspections of essential components. On the other hand, a major service is a more comprehensive examination that includes in-depth inspections, replacements, and adjustments of critical parts, such as the timing belt, spark plugs, and brake components. Major services are usually conducted at longer intervals and play a crucial role in ensuring the overall health and longevity of the vehicle.
