Service Benefits

"A correctly serviced and tuned engine will have a longer, more economical service life than one that is run into the ground with minimal or inappropriate attention. It can also pre-warn of potentially major problems with the engine and transmission.

A full service will include fluid level checks and or changes depending on the system...

A full service will pick up any potential cooling system problem including leaks from the radiator, cap, water pump, cylinder head or gasket and hoses.... And the best thing apart from having a fully functional, safe car is that with a complete service history, the car will be worth more when you sell it."
