Prevention is better than cure - Desiderius Erasmus
Regular servicing is the most cost-effective way to maintain your car. And its also the most tempting thing to skip! “The car’s running fine, the service can wait a bit longer” is a thought that’s run through everyone’s head (even ours, if we’re being honest), but a service at Murrumba Auto Care in Kallangur is more than just an oil change. We’ll give your car a complete inspection to make sure everything is ship shape, and let you know if there’s anything that needs considering, before it becomes a 2 hour wait for the tow truck and a hefty bill.
As a general rule of thumb to service your car every 6 months or 10000kms, if you’re past that click here to book with us or give us a call on (07) 3285 4440

There are a phenomenal number of moving parts in an engine, and your engine oil is the thing that keeps them all moving smoothly. Without proper lubrication, these parts can wear quicker as there will be more friction, this can also lead to overheating, and eventually those parts will either be damaged beyond repair or seize up
Engine oil itself generally has a shelf life of 5 years or more in the can, but under the stresses of the heat of the engine, as well as potential contamination from dirt and moisture, the oil in your car over time will start to turn to sludge can cause catastrophic engine failure.

As well as saving you potential money and time on getting your car fixed, regular servicing can help improve your mileage, saving on fuel. Proper lubrication and making sure everything is working in harmony will ultimately mean your car runs more efficiently.
We’re not saying that after you bring it in you’ll save $10 next time you visit the servo, but those small petrol savings/performance gains over time can really add up

When it comes to moving on to your next vehicle, having the car’s service history helps give potential buyers peace of mind, which lends itself to a higher asking price. So it’s not just the savings on repairs where your wallet will thank you!
