How much is a full car service?
When a new customer gets in touch enquiring as to the cost of a full car service for their vehicle, there are a few things we need to establish to ensure that we answer their question. It is often the case that the customer is aware of two main types of car service: “full” or “interim” or “major” or “minor”. It is common to think that a vehicle should be serviced simply by alternating “major” and “minor” services, year to year. Broadly speaking, for most vehicles, this isn’t far off. However, a modern car, with a complex service schedule will have sub-sets of both “major” and “minor” services. This means that we must gather and take into account additional information before being able to provide a cost for the applicable full car service.
Varying scope of the full car service
At M B Jarvie Car Service Glasgow, we specialise in the repair of German cars including Volkswagen, Audi & Mercedes. For example, a typical modern car service schedule may have the following structure:
Year 1/Mileage interval 1: Minor service
Year 2/Mileage interval 2: Full service 1
Year 3/Mileage interval 3: Minor service
Year 4/Mileage interval 4: Full service 2
and so on…
“Full service 1” is different from “full service 2” and, as you would expect, will differ in cost. While service schedules vary for each manufacturer and for each model, this basic example illustrates that, asking “How much is a full car service?”, must receive the only responsible response: “It depends”. We therefore hope that you will understand why this post does not contain a actual figure for a full service cost. Among our top priories at M B Jarvie Car Service Glasgow is to ensure that your vehicle is correctly maintained. This means ensuring your car is serviced in accordance with the required schedule. Deviating from the required schedule is not advisable for a number of reasons, namely that the longevity of your car may be compromised.
