What does a car service include?

As a general rule, your car will likely need to be serviced every 6-12 months, depending on the manufacturer’s recommendations. The exact inclusions of your car service and mobile car service will vary depending on how much work is needed on your car. Some of the popular car services you can book on Airtasker include:

Oil and oil filter change

An oil and oil filter change will help your car run smoothly and increase fuel efficiency. It’s one of the most important parts of a service and should be included in both minor and major services. Your mechanic will find the oil drain plug, loosen and unscrew it, and carefully allow the old oil to drain into a pan. Then they’ll replace and tighten the plug before removing and replacing the filter. Finally, they’ll fill up with fresh oil up to the “full” mark on the dipstick.

Car minor service

A minor service is also known as an interim or basic service. It focuses on changing and topping up fluids and inspecting a number of components for wear and tear. A minor service includes an oil and filter change; an under-body and under-bonnet inspection; a top-up of all key fluids in the engine, including washer fluid, brake fluid, antifreeze, and steering fluid; and a check of up to 35 key components, such as lights, tyres, and brakes. Most mechanics will also check the manufacturer guidelines and recommend any additional work your car may need.

Car major service

A major service includes all the basic services described above, but will also include an inspection of an additional 15-30 car components to ensure that your vehicle is in the best condition possible. These components can include wheel bearings, shock absorbers, and the air conditioning system. Any parts that need extra work or replacement, such as car batteries or windscreens, will be billed as extra.

Model-specific services

If you’re enthusiastic about cars, it might be a good idea to book a mechanic who specialises in your car’s make and model. You can book in a car service with a mechanic who specialises in BMW Servicing, Ford Servicing, Holden Servicing, Honda Servicing, Hyundai Servicing, Mazda Servicing, Mercedes Benz Servicing, Nissan Servicing, Peugeot Servicing, Subaru Servicing, Toyota Servicing, and Volkswagen Servicing. They’ll be familiar with the common issues that are likely to come up and will have specific parts available on-hand in case you need a replacement or repair.

ELECTRICIAN: Suzuki Swift 2018 driver-side window not rising

$125

Braddon ACT 2612, Australia

30th Oct 2024

I will drive to you to minimise costs, and I can buy any parts required. Looking to pay for labour of diagnostics and repair only. Diagnostic information: This appears to be an electrical issue, most likely inside the door panel. The window cannot be forced upwards by hand - most likely by design. - The motor appears to activate for downwards pull, but no activation at all for upwards. - All other power windows are working fine, so it’s unlikely to be a blown fuse. - The auto-lowering does not seem to activate, neither does the rising. However, the lowering sounds like it does sometimes. - All other electricals in vehicle appear to be fine

Very informative, hardworking, helpful and honest

Hughes ACT, Australia

13th Oct 2024

Moving to Brisbane tomorrow. Problem already diagnosed, my brother who is a qualified mechanic was going to do it when I reached his place in Newcastle tomorrow evening. Not confident it will get there without this part being replaced. Apparently it is an easily sourceable part and would be a 10 minute fix. I know it’s short notice and a long shot, but if there is anyone that could do this for me tomorrow morning that would be a god send. I may be able to source the part myself in the morning but if someone could do it that would be handy. Thanks
