Servicing…
Why should my car be serviced?
A car, in its simplest form, is a machine. As we all know, machines are prone to malfunctioning and often need repairs at some point in their life. Having your car serviced is one of the many ways to keep these repairs down to a bare minimum and prolong the life of your vehicle.
When should my car be serviced?
When you should have your service carried out depends on the age and service schedule your car is due. This either goes by age or mileage – for most makes of vehicle your car should be serviced at least once a year regardless of mileage. Depending on your particular vehicle and its service schedule depends on what your vehicle will be due to have replaced.
What happens in a service?
When a service is carried out, a full inspection is made of your vehicle including brakes, tyres, all major components underneath the car and the cars general health. The engine oil and oil filter will be changed, as well as other filters on the car such as the air filter, pollen filter or fuel filter if they are due. For the age of the vehicle your service may also include having the spark plugs replaced, a brake fluid change, coolant fluid change and an air-con regas if your car is fitted with air-con. If your car needs any other repairs we will always make a note and advise you as to the best way to care for your car.
Will having my service carried out by a non main-dealer affect my warranty?
No. You have the freedom of choosing whichever garage you wish to carry out your service, which can save you a lot of money in the long run. At D&A Autos we carry out your service to the highest grade possible, and if your car is still under manufacture warranty we will ensure we use main dealer parts and your vehicle will be cared for and repaired at a main-dealer standard.
