A log book service is a scheduled service recommended by your vehicle manufacturer at specific intervals (based on time or kilometres). It ensures your car is maintained to factory standards, helping keep it safe, reliable, and running efficiently.

No. Having your vehicle serviced at a qualified independent workshop like Port Macquarie Tuning will not void your warranty, as long as:

• Manufacturer specifications are followed
• Quality parts and fluids are used
• Service records are properly maintained

This is protected under Australian Consumer Law.

This depends on your vehicle make and model, but most cars require servicing every:

• 10,000–15,000 km, or
• Every 6–12 months

Check your vehicle’s log book or contact us for advice tailored to your car.

A log book service includes all checks and replacements outlined by your manufacturer, such as:

• Engine oil and filter change
• Brake inspection
• Suspension and steering checks
• Fluid top-ups and condition checks
• Safety inspection of key components

Each service is specific to your vehicle’s schedule.
