General service or logbook service?

A logbook service follows the specific guidelines in your car’s logbook, tailored to your make and model. If your car is still under warranty, it’s usually best to stick with a logbook service, because following the manufacturer’s specifications is often a requirement to maintain the warranty. If your car is no longer under warranty, a general service might be a better option. See our logbook service page.

Big jobs we take on

Although we’re big job specialists, we take on the things others don’t, including:

• Head gaskets
• Engine rebuilds and replacements
• Clutch replacements

We’re also experts in transmissions and clutch repairs. For anything else, see car repairs.

Why regular servicing matters

Regular servicing helps catch small problems before they turn into big issues, which can save you money on costly repairs. It also makes your car safer to drive, and regular maintenance can extend the life of your car.

Workshop or mobile car service

Bring your car to 4/8 Reichert Drive, Molendinar, or book our mobile mechanics for expert attention right in your driveway. We serve Ashmore, Southport, Robina, Burleigh Heads, Helensvale, Labrador, Parkwood and surrounding Gold Coast areas.

Car service questions

How often should I service my car?

Most experts recommend a basic car service at least once a year or every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometres. For a logbook service, follow the interval in your car’s logbook.

What’s included in a general car service?

An oil change and oil filter replacement, fluid checks, a brake inspection, and checks of your tyres, battery, lights, wiper blades, belts and hoses, plus general safety checks.

What’s the difference between a general service and a logbook service?

A logbook service follows the specific guidelines in your car’s logbook for your make and model. A general service is more flexible and covers many of the same tasks. If your car is still under warranty, it’s usually best to stick with a logbook service.

How can I tell if I need a major or minor service?

It depends on your car’s age, mileage and condition. A major service is usually recommended every two years or 30,000 kilometres, and a minor service typically every 10,000 kilometres.

Do you service all makes and models?

Yes. We work on all makes and models, and our team includes specialists in European vehicles, diesel and 4WDs.

Do you take on bigger jobs like head gaskets and engine rebuilds?

Yes. We’re big job specialists and take on the things others don’t, including head gaskets, engine rebuilds and replacements, and clutch replacements.

Can you service my car at home or work?

Yes. Our mobile mechanics come to you with fully equipped service vehicles, or you can bring your car to our Molendinar workshop.

Will you quote before doing extra work?

Yes. If any parts need replacing or extra work is recommended, we explain the issue clearly and provide a quote before any work is carried out.
