What drivers say about mechanics in our network
Quick drop off. Told what needed doing and how much before the work commenced which was very appreciated. Car ready on time. Great service and car runs like a dream. Thanks guys.

We got our RWC done here and were very happy with the service. The process was smooth, professional, and completed in a timely manner. The team was friendly, helpful, and explained everything clearly. Would definitely recommend.

Why the make matters
Each maker sets its own service schedule, and schedules vary even within one make: a Toyota HiLux is on six months or 10,000 km, while Toyota's petrol hybrids, the current Corolla among them, are on 12 months or 15,000 km. The Toyota page has the detail.
Makers also set the oil grade and the fluid and parts specifications, and some cars bring systems of their own: a 4WD's transfer case, a diesel's fuel system, a hybrid's high-voltage battery. For cars built from 2002 on, independent mechanics can buy the maker's service and repair information, the same information dealers work from.
