About Servicing

Why pay more elsewhere?

About ServicingMany car owners fully service their car every year or every 12,000 miles – whichever comes earlier. Servicing proactively maintains your car, reducing the risk of a breakdown. Even if it is irregular, servicing can help maintain your car’s value.

Why have a Service at Kwik Fit?

Many people believe that their driving does add carbon to the atmosphere. Now, you can do something to positively offset your carbon footprint – and save yourself money too.

What is the difference between an Interim Service and a Full Service?

A Full Service is ideal for an annual maintenance programme for your car and recommended every 12,000 miles or 12 months – whichever is sooner. Some manufacturers may recommend more frequent checks. Interim Servicing is ideal for vehicles used for short, mainly urban journeys or for those who wish to service vehicles doing very high mileage more regularly. An Interim Service every 6,000 miles or 6 months helps keep your car safe and roadworthy between full services.

Why are there different types of engine oil?

Because not all engines are the same! A growing number of manufacturers specify that an enhanced “specialist oil” will optimise the engines performance. Kwik Fit will recommend an oil equivalent to the manufacturer’s specification. Furthermore, in some cases you can choose to upgrade your oil from semi-synthetic to “specialist”. Speak to your Centre Manager to confirm the right oil for your car.
