A major service is the most comprehensive level of routine maintenance and includes everything in a full service plus additional inspections and replacements that aren’t covered as frequently. It is designed to be carried out less often (typically every 24 months or around 24,000 miles) and gives a thorough check of the vehicle’s key systems. However, a major service should still sit within a structured programme of regular maintenance, including interim or full services in between, to ensure your car stays consistently well-maintained and safe.
Yes, we can service cars under manufacturer warranty by following the manufacturer's guidelines. Our major service uses only approved parts and fluids, ensuring that your warranty remains valid while maintaining your vehicle's performance and reliability.
Yes, during our major service, we will reset the service light to accurately reflect your vehicle's maintenance schedule. This assists you in tracking when the next service is needed, ensuring your car remains in excellent shape.
Yes, we can conduct a major service at your workplace or on a residential street, as long as the location is accessible. This service is designed for your convenience, allowing you to keep your vehicle in top condition without disrupting your daily routine.
On average, a major service takes between 90 minutes to two hours. This can change depending on the specific needs of your vehicle and the complexity involved. If further repairs or parts are needed, it could take a little longer.
Yes. A major service goes beyond what you can perceive when driving and includes detailed inspections and replacements of parts that aren’t checked every year. Cars often develop issues that aren’t obvious during normal use, and a major service helps catch these before they worsen. Even if your car feels fine, this level of servicing supports reliability and long-term performance, particularly as the vehicle ages or reaches higher mileage.
While a major service doesn’t replace the legal requirement for an MOT, it can help reduce the risk of failure. A major service involves very thorough checks and maintenance of systems that aren’t all covered by an MOT test, such as engine components, fluid quality, spark plugs and brake fluid. Addressing these areas in advance can minimise the likelihood of something causing the car to fail its MOT. It is good practice to schedule servicing and your MOT close together when possible.
Generally, yes. A major service is an investment in preventive maintenance. By identifying wear or early-stage faults before they develop into significant failures, it can reduce the likelihood of expensive repairs later on. Catching an emerging issue during a scheduled service is usually much cheaper than waiting until it causes a breakdown or more serious damage.
We cover the areas shown here, along with nearby towns and villages. If you’re not sure whether we can come to you, send us a message and we’ll let you know if we can help.
