Servicing is completed to the vehicle application using suitable engine oil, filters and service checks. Any extra repair recommendation is explained before approval so the customer stays in control of cost.

Interval-specific maintenance

What can be included in a logbook service

Engine oil and filtration

Correct oil specification and quantity, oil filter, sump plug washer and leak inspection. Air, cabin and fuel filters are checked or replaced when the interval requires them.

Fluids and cooling system

Coolant, brake fluid, transmission, driveline, washer and power-steering fluid observations where applicable, including accessible leak and hose checks.

Brakes, tyres and suspension

Visible pad and rotor condition, tyre pressure and tread, steering joints, suspension components, boots and wheel-bearing observations where accessible.

Ignition and engine items

Spark plugs, auxiliary belts, PCV-related checks and other scheduled engine items are included when required by the exact service interval.

Diesel, 4WD and driveline

Diesel fuel filters, water traps, transfer case, differential and driveline requirements are checked against the vehicle schedule and operating conditions.

Records and reminder reset

Work performed, parts used and recommendations are recorded. The service reminder is reset where supported and the service record is completed appropriately.

Correct scope matters: a 15,000 km minor service is not the same as a major interval. Registration or VIN, odometer reading and service history are used to determine the required parts and checks before quoting.
Clear pricing

Logbook servicing from $395 inc GST

Final pricing depends on the manufacturer schedule, oil specification and capacity, filter requirements, spark plugs, driveline fluids and vehicle access.

Major logbook servicing starts from $595 inc GST. A written or confirmed scope is provided before extra work proceeds.

What is checked during a mobile service

Service scope depends on the vehicle, kilometre interval and condition. Typical checks include engine oil and filter, under-bonnet fluids, visible leaks, tyre condition, brake condition, lights, battery condition and service reminder reset where applicable.

If a vehicle shows warning lights, rough running, fluid leaks or safety concerns, the issue can be moved into a diagnostic inspection instead of simply replacing parts without proof.
