What is a Car Service and why does my car need Servicing?

A car service involves a comprehensive set of inspections and routine maintenance aimed at identifying any signs of wear and tear on the vehicle. This includes evaluating essential components such as brakes, filters, tyres, and oil levels. Regular servicing is the most effective method to guarantee that all systems are functioning properly. Harrietsham Garage & MOT advises proactive maintenance is the key to vehicle care, as regular checks can significantly reduce the risk of future damage.

 

How often should I Service my car?

Harrietsham Garage & MOT advises that vehicles should undergo servicing annually or after reaching 10,000 to 12,000 miles, whichever occurs first. The specific requirements may vary based on the make and model of the car, as well as the driver's habits.

​

What Car Service should I book?

The type of car service you need is primarily determined by how often you service your vehicle and the mileage accumulated since your last visit. At Harrietsham Garage & MOT, we highly recommend opting for a Full Car Service. However, if your vehicle is consistently maintained, a basic service can effectively ensure it operates smoothly and without issues. We provide our customers with four distinct car service options to meet their specific needs.
