Log Book Servicing in Hastings VIC
Your car’s log book service schedule exists for a reason: regular, correct servicing keeps your vehicle reliable, safe and valuable. Car Whisperer provides log book servicing in Hastings for a wide range of makes and models, with honest advice and fair prices. Many of our customers switched to us after feeling overcharged elsewhere.
What is a log book service?
A log book service follows the schedule set by your vehicle’s manufacturer, usually based on kilometres or time, whichever comes first. Each service has a list of checks and replacements, such as oil and filters, fluids, belts, brakes and more. We carry out the items required for your car’s next scheduled service and record it in your log book.
Will servicing with you affect my new car warranty?
In Australia, you generally don’t have to service your vehicle at the dealership to keep your manufacturer’s warranty, provided the servicing is done to the manufacturer’s requirements using appropriate parts and fluids. If you’re unsure, call us and ask before booking. We’re happy to talk it through.
