What is a log book service?

Log Book Servicing is a preventive measure for your car's well-being. Through consistent examinations and minor adjustments, you can ensure your vehicle runs effectively, avoiding the probability of little issues developing into huge, costly repairs.

Manufacturers should provide each passenger vehicle (and most commercial ones) with a "Log Book," outlining the expected time intervals and specifics for log book services. Keep this book in the glove box for reference and recording, however if it is misplaced, Dion's Mechanical Services can consult its database to access the information.

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

Despite being driveable, don't put off getting your next log book service too long. With both time and distance requirements in mind, the costs of wear and tear can accumulate exponentially, eventually leading to costly repairs far more expensive than the log book service itself. Keep availability in your budget and schedule in mind, but don't delay the service too long.

What's included?

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.

Here are some examples of what can be included;

  • Change Oil
  • Check Coolant
  • Check Car Battery
  • Check Transmission Fluid
