FAQ
What are signs my car needs mechanical repairs?
Common warning signs include engine warning lights, unusual sounds, fluid leaks, vibrations, difficulty starting and changes in fuel efficiency. You might also notice issues with braking, steering or overall drive performance. These symptoms can be early indicators of deeper mechanical problems, so it’s best to have them checked by a qualified technician before the issue becomes more serious or costly to repair.
How often should I have my car inspected for mechanical issues?
It's recommended to have your vehicle checked at least every 6 to 12 months, or according to your logbook schedule. However, if you notice any unusual behaviour such as poor handling, increased fuel use or dashboard alerts, book an inspection sooner. Regular servicing is the best way to catch mechanical issues early and avoid expensive repairs down the line.
Do mechanical repairs affect my new car warranty?
Not if they are carried out correctly. Repairs that are unrelated to your logbook servicing can usually be done by any licensed mechanic without voiding your warranty. If your car is still under manufacturer warranty, it's important that parts and procedures used during repairs meet manufacturer guidelines. Always check your warranty terms and ask your repairer if you're unsure.
