Vehicle Servicing
At PB Motors, we offer a wide range of servicing for cars and light commercial vehicles such as vans.
Our garage features state of the art computerised diagnostic equipment, and we only ever use the recommended grades of oils and fluids for your vehicle.
There are two main types of service available:
Full Car Servicing
This is a major health check for your car, a multipoint inspection where we look at more than 60 different areas based on the make and model you drive. You should book in for full car servicing annually, or after every 12,000 miles driven. Some manufacturers might have slightly different intervals, but 12 months is the typical period between each full service.
Because a full (or major) service costs more than an interim service, some motorists book in for their MOT test at the same time to save money.
Interim Car Servicing
The interim service is a mid-point maintenance program for drivers who cover more than 12,000 miles in a calendar year. Some motorists see interim car servicing as a basic oil and filter change. In today’s modern automotive sector, this mid-point service can cover as many as 35 to 40 different checks, and often more, based on the type of car you currently drive.
Interim car servicing helps you to keep on top of possible mechanical issues and reduces the amount of wear and tear on moving engine parts.
PB Motors performs full and interim car servicing for private, trade and fleet customers from Kidlington and Oxford, and from all surrounding locations in the Oxford area.
Do I have to get my car serviced by a main dealer?
You are not obliged (since October 2003) to get the car serviced by a franchise dealer during the warranty period.
You must though get it serviced according to the manufacturer's recommended schedule and criteria using only manufacturer approved parts.
If you do get the car serviced outside the dealer network, you must make sure it's done to the maker's recommended schedule and criteria using approved parts. You must also keep records so you can demonstrate to the manufacturer that servicing was undertaken to their requirements. PB Motors ensure your servicing meets both requirements, giving you main dealer standard servicing at affordable rates.
