FAQs
1. How often do I need logbook servicing?
It depends on your car’s manufacturer guidelines, but most recommend servicing every 10,000–15,000 kilometres or every six months. We usually recommend 10,000 or every six months, whichever comes first, especially for diesel engines.
2. What happens if I miss a logbook service?
Missing a service can lead to wear and tear, reduced performance, and may void your manufacturer’s warranty. If you miss a lot of services, it can result in the oil becoming too old. When the oil is old it cannot lubricate your engine properly resulting in complete engine failure.
3. Can BB Garage service my vehicle if it’s under warranty?
Absolutely! We use manufacturer-approved parts and follow all guidelines, ensuring your warranty remains intact. ACCC has a great guide showing that it is your right as an Australian Consumer to choose where to have your car serviced without losing your warranty!
Dealerships obviously want you to go back to them, so they’ll often strongly suggest you go back to them; however dealership servicing is often very basic! If you’re wanting to keep your vehicle in it’s best condition, then you want a full service, not just a basic oil and filter!
