Frequently Asked Questions
About Car Servicing at Belfast Car Repairs
How often should I get my car serviced?
Oil & Filter Change: As needed, with a free visual health check available at Belfast Car Repairs to assess your needs.
Interim Service: Every 6,000 miles or every 6 months, to keep your vehicle in top condition.
Full Service: Every 24,000 miles or every 24 months, to thoroughly check and maintain all aspects of your vehicle.
What are car service records? How can I check my car's service history?
Car service records are detailed logs of all the maintenance work performed on your vehicle. These records are crucial for maintaining its value and performance. Check your service book for entries of each service, which should include the date and details of the work done. Remember, an oil & filter change does not get stamped in your service book, but an Interim or Full Service will be noted. If purchasing a vehicle, reviewing these records alongside the MOT history is essential to ensure the vehicle’s reliability.
Can a car service improve MPG?
Yes, regular servicing can enhance your vehicle’s miles per gallon (MPG), saving you money on fuel. A well-maintained vehicle runs more efficiently, reducing the strain on the engine and subsequently improving fuel economy. Regular tyre checks and maintenance included in our services also contribute to better MPG.
How is a car service done? What is tested during a car service?
A car service at Belfast Car Repairs involves several checks to ensure your vehicle performs safely and efficiently. The scope of the service depends on whether it’s an Oil & Filter Change, an Interim Service, or a Full Service. Each service includes a series of inspections and replacements that keep your vehicle in optimal condition, from engine lubrication to a comprehensive health check of all major components.
Is car servicing a legal requirement?
While not legally required like an MOT, car servicing is crucial for maintaining vehicle safety, efficiency, and longevity. Regular servicing helps detect potential issues early, preventing costly repairs and prolonging the life of your vehicle. It also ensures better fuel efficiency and maintains the value of your car.
What do you need to bring when your car is serviced?
When coming in for a service at Belfast Car Repairs, you do not need to bring anything if it’s just an oil & filter change. However, if you are booked for an Interim or Full Service, bring your car service book to have it stamped, which helps maintain a comprehensive record of regular maintenance.
What counts as a full service history?
A full service history means that the vehicle has been maintained regularly according to the manufacturer’s guidelines and has records of all services and repairs. This history increases the resale value of the car and assures potential buyers of its upkeep.
