Log Book Servicing is a proactive approach to car maintenance where regular inspections and small fixes keep your vehicle running smoothly and efficiently to prevent small problems turning into major damage and issues which could otherwise be very costly to repair. Servicing outside the car dealer network will not void the new car warranty.

Auto Care Ocean Grove have the most up to date dealer style equipment in our area and factory-trained technicians who specialise in European vehicles.

Every passenger car (and most commercials vehicles) should be issued with a "Log Book" by the manufacturer, which lays out the specified timing and agenda for your regular log book services. You should keep your log book in your glove box for reference and recording any details, but Auto Care Ocean Grove can also refer to our database to get the required information if you've misplaced your book.

The schedule of the service will be a combination of both time or distance.

You may be tempted to delay your next log book service because your car is probably still driveable, and it may not have reached BOTH the time and distance measures. While you obviously need to find availability in your budget and schedule, don't delay too long - because wear and tear on the car will increase exponentially and could lead to damage which is many times more expensive than the log book service would have been.

Regular new car and log book service helps to avoid voiding your warranty, breakdowns and unnecessary wear on components caused by prolonged service intervals as well as helping to maintain the efficiency of your vehicle. It also gives you a good service history which can be useful whenn selling a vehicle.

Every car is different and the agenda for each service changes according to the schedule, which is why each vehicle is issued with a log book.
