Vehicle Servicing

Properly scheduled servicing that protects your warranty and your wallet — because a $200 service is a lot cheaper than a $5,000 engine.

Overview

Modern engines run hot, run lean and run for a long time — but only if they're looked after. We service vehicles strictly to the manufacturer's specified schedule, using the correct grade of oil, the right filters, and the genuine or equivalent parts your car was designed for. That's how we keep your factory warranty intact and your engine alive past 300,000 km.

Petrol, diesel, hybrid or fully electric — we handle the lot. Each vehicle has its own quirks and its own service requirements, and we treat them accordingly. A Hilux gets the Hilux service. A Tesla gets the EV service. No one-size-fits-all packages.

What we cover

  • Oil and filter change with the correct manufacturer-specified grade
  • Air filter, cabin filter and fuel filter as scheduled
  • Full underbody and engine bay inspection
  • Brake check, suspension check and tyre rotation
  • Coolant, brake fluid and transmission fluid level/condition check
  • Digital service report sent to you when you collect

Time for a service when…

  • Service light or dash reminder has come on
  • It's been 10,000 km (or 12 months) since the last one
  • You're about to do a long road trip
  • The car's drinking more fuel than usual
  • You bought a used car and want to know what's actually going on under the bonnet

Our approach

Drop the car off in the morning (loan cars available — let us know when you book). We'll service to the manufacturer schedule, scan for any stored fault codes, and call you with anything we find before doing extra work. Most services are finished same day.

Why us, here in Kapiti

We log everything against your vehicle's service history. Next time you come in, we already know what was done, what's coming up and what to keep an eye on — no starting from scratch every visit.
