Do you own a land cruiser, premio, vitz or generally any Toyota. Just put it, you need to service your Toyota, did you know these four benefits of servicing.

Although servicing your vehicle is not a legal requirement, there are a number of good reasons why you should consider getting your car serviced on a regular basis as prescribed by the mechanic.

Safety

Regular servicing can help to identify potential problems before they become real ones. Servicing will make sure that essential checks are carried out to critical vehicle components such as your braking system and suspension to make sure that these vital parts don’t let you down when you need them most. Regular servicing provides peace of mind that the vehicle is in road-worthy condition.

Just because a car feels ok, it doesn’t automatically mean all is working as well as it should be. As the miles clock-up so too does the wear and tear, but because deterioration is often gradual and hidden out of sight, car owners may not see and feel the change. This can blind motorists into a false sense of security, mistakenly believing that all is ok because nothing major has gone wrong with their vehicle.

If you don’t want to do a service of your car, at least do an inspection so you are aware of the problems in your car and can take cautious measures especially in areas where life and death is concerned. Lets keep anyone on road safe. Remember servicing is the solution, an inspection only gives you information pertaining the status of your car.

Save money

Failing to service your vehicle when its due, to save money is a false economic move. Regular servicing can help to identify issues early on that could later become costly and expensive to rectify. Take engine oil for example, it’s needed to lubricate and protect the moving parts inside your engine. Without it, your engine could seize up costing lots of money to repair or replace. All our service schedules include checking the engine oil and, if needed, replacing this with fresh oil specifically designed for your car to keep your engine running smoothly.

Regular servicing can also save motorists money at the petrol pump. New oil and air filters make for a smoother running engine and a more fuel efficient car, while addressing issues such as under inflated tyres will reduce rolling resistance and improve fuel consumption.

Furthermore, not servicing your car increases your chances of suffering a breakdown – which is both costly and inconvenient if you subsequently become reliant on hire cars or public transport whilst your vehicle is fixed.

Did you know insurance claims can also be lulled if servicing schedules are not upheld.

Longevity

Simply put, regularly servicing your car will undoubtedly improve the life span of the vehicle. Just like your body, the better you treat it – the longer it is likely to last. And with more and more people choosing to hold on to their car for longer – regular servicing is crucial if you are to enjoy many years of trouble-free driving.

Maintaining vehicle resale value

The second hand market is always competitive, with buyers expecting more for their money. A car with evidence of regular servicing – or even better a full service history – is likely to attract more potential buyers and a higher selling price.
