Car Maintenance Services
Many vehicle owners fail to take proper care of their vehicles. Some defer regular car maintenance because they don’t feel they can afford them. Others use the ‘I don’t have time to take my car into the mechanic’ excuse. Ultimately, the reason for skipping preventative vehicle maintenance doesn’t matter, as the consequence is the same: a car that doesn’t perform as well, breaks down or runs out of life, years before it should.
Instead of worrying about when your car will suffer from mechanical problems, why not do everything you can to ensure it never happens in the first place? The best approach to car ownership is one based on preventative maintenance. Regularly checking on the status of your car and its components means catching any issues early
Our Australian and European car service centre provides full car maintenance services in Sunshine Coast hinterland for most makes and models.
Our vehicle mechanics and technicians are fully trained, accredited and highly experienced so you can rest assured your vehicle is in safe hands. Our business is founded on customer satisfaction and repairs characterised by top-tier workmanship. We are a full-service mechanic offering everything from logbook servicing of new vehicles to brake checks and air conditioning inspections and beyond.
Our goal is to get to know your car inside out and provide long-term support and service. Our general car service includes tasks such as checking all critical engine components (spark plugs, etc.), monitoring all fluid levels, testing lights and fuses, and diagnostic examinations of the braking, steering, suspension, and driveline systems.
During your car servicing, if our mechanics find anything requiring repairs or parts replacement, they will inform you as soon as possible before they start working on the “fix” so you don’t incur any additional costs which you have not consented to. ONLY once we have the go-ahead from you will we work beyond what was initially agreed upon. Our vehicle servicing centre has a policy ensuring that no extra money is spent without the owner’s consent.
There are several car maintenances services to choose from depending upon your needs:
European Car Maintenance
Our team have extensive training and mechanical experience in various European car makes and models. If we discover anything needing replacement during your European car maintenance service, we will offer you the choice of fitting genuine European parts or equal quality aftermarket part alternatives.
General Full Car Service (including Car Safety Inspection)
A general car service includes a thorough vehicle safety inspection and so much more – battery tests, wheel and tyre checks, cooling system and engine tests, air-con, driveline, fluid and oil checks and top-ups, plus much more. Visit the General Full Car Service page for the comprehensive list.
Roadworthy Certificate Service
Our car service centre has an Approved Vehicle Inspection Station to carry out Roadworthy Certification. In Queensland, when you purchase a registered second-hand vehicle, it must come with a Road Worthy Certificate. If you are registering an unregistered vehicle with us, you must supply a ‘Compulsory Third Party’ Certificate to us so we can perform the necessary legal roadworthy testing.
Wheel Balancing and Wheel Alignment Tyre Service
Our car service centre has access to all leading tyre brands. We can advise you on the best tyre options for your car’s steering and suspension.
Auto Electrical Services
Our mechanics can fix all car electrical faults, from light globes, wiring faults and starter motor overhauls to the latest fuel injection system fault diagnosis and more. Accurately diagnosing and repairing car electrical faults makes up a large percentage of the car maintenance services we perform daily here in Nambour.
Car Logbook Service
Our Nambour mechanics can service your new car without affecting your manufacturer’s warranty, so take advantage of this service to ensure your new car is in 100% tip-top shape. After all, if there’s a fault, you want it picked up and rectified by your car dealer before your new car warranty has run-out.
During a manufacturer handbook service, the dealer will only look at the areas listed in their schedule. Whereas, when our car service centre does logbook servicing, not only do we follow the full schedule, but we also carry out our own thorough car inspection looking at all other aspects of the vehicle.
More Reasons to Book in for Regular Car Maintenance
By investing in preventative maintenance services, you will give yourself the following advantages:
- Your car will last longer. Would you rather have a car that lasts for 15 years or a car that stops performing well after 5? Caring for your car and maintaining its various components will prolong its life dramatically.
- Your car will perform better. Have you noticed that your car’s fuel economy has gone down over the years? That decline could be the result of skipped oil changes. Does your car give a rough or bumpy ride? Suspension problems could be to blame. Routine car inspections and servicing will catch these problems before they get serious and improve your vehicle’s overall performance.
- Your car will retain its value. They say that a car loses 10% of its value you the minute you drive it off the lot. Car values depreciate dramatically throughout their lifespans, but you can maintain the value by maintaining the car. Keeping up regular services, repairing old or broken components and working to keep the car running well and looking great will keep its resale value high.
