Why neglecting major maintenance could cost you more than just money

When it comes to keeping your vehicle roadworthy and reliable, few things are as crucial as a regular major service. Unlike a minor check-up, a major service is a comprehensive inspection and replacement of critical components, helping prevent long-term damage and ensuring optimal performance.

What Is a Major Service?

More than just an oil change—it’s a full health check for your car.

A major service typically includes all the inspections from a minor service, but with additional replacements and checks. For most vehicles, a major service is due every 30,000–45,000 km, depending on the manufacturer’s recommendations and driving conditions.

Why It Matters—Especially in Winter

Cold conditions put extra strain on engines, brakes, and batteries.

Winter brings its own set of challenges for your car. Thickened oil, sluggish batteries, and worn tyres can turn minor issues into major problems. A comprehensive service ensures your vehicle is winter-ready, preventing breakdowns and keeping your passengers safe.
