What is a car service?

A car service is a comprehensive health check for your car carried out by one of our specialist technicians – based on guidelines specified by your car’s manufacturer.

We test all the important components on your car, such as the brakes, suspension, steering, lighting and tyres.

Car services are designed to keep your vehicle roadworthy and to spot any potential problems that might arise – and fix them before they do.

At Station Road Garage, we offer three main types of car services:

Is the air conditioning in your car not working? See how we can help and book an aircon regas with us today!

How often should I book a car service?

A full service usually takes place every two years, but is mileage dependent.

If your mileage is consistently high, we recommend you book a car service once a year to make sure your car stays in its best possible condition.

A brake fluid change must also be carried out every two years, too.

How long does a car service take?

They usually take between two and four hours plus any work that’s needed, so it’s a good idea to factor in a whole day to get your car serviced.

We have a fleet of loan cars available, free of charge, so it’s easy to leave your vehicle with us for a day.

What else do I need to bring to my car service?

Having a complete service history documented for your car will help its resale value.

Therefore, when you drive over, please make sure you bring your service book so we can stamp it. 

You must also leave your locking wheel nut key out for us too, please.

Can I get a replacement car while you do my service?

Yes. We have a fleet of extremely reliable loan cars.

Please book one early as they’re very popular!
