What's Included in New Car Servicing?
New car servicing follows a logbook schedule outlined by your vehicle’s manufacturer and is essential for keeping your warranty valid. Each service is based on either a time or distance interval—whichever comes first—and includes checks and replacements appropriate for that stage in the car’s lifecycle.
A typical new car service may involve:
- Changing engine oil & filters
- Checking brakes
- Inspecting suspension
- Testing battery performance
- Topping up fluids
- Checking for software updates or system alerts
This service ensures the vehicle runs smoothly and efficiently and confirms all systems are functioning as intended. Under Australian Consumer Law, you can choose any qualified repairer for your new car servicing—as long as they follow the manufacturer’s specifications—so you’re not locked into the dealership.
Keeping up with these scheduled services helps preserve resale value and reduces the risk of unexpected repairs later on. Reach out to AWS Mechanical to book.
How often should a new car be serviced?
New cars typically require servicing every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometres, or every six to twelve months—whichever comes first. This schedule may vary depending on the make and model, so always check the logbook or owner’s manual. Some vehicles with advanced onboard monitoring systems will notify you when a service is due.
What is the difference between a dealer service and an independent service?
The main difference is location and price—not necessarily quality. Dealerships often charge more due to overhead costs and branding. Independent mechanics can provide the same level of service (and sometimes better customer care) using OEM-equivalent parts and diagnostic tools, all while still complying with manufacturer standards and preserving your warranty.
Is new car servicing really necessary if the car is running fine?
Yes. Even if your new car seems to be running perfectly, servicing is essential for preventative maintenance. It allows mechanics to spot issues early, replace ageing fluids and parts, and ensure your warranty remains intact. Skipping services may lead to performance loss, higher fuel consumption or voided warranty claims down the track.
