Log Book Service

Car Service "By the Book"

At Repco Authorised Service, we understand the importance of maintaining your vehicle to keep it running smoothly and efficiently. One of the most crucial aspects of car maintenance is adhering to manufacturer-recommended service schedules, often documented in your car's logbook.

Sometimes known as a hand book service, a car log book service is a comprehensive maintenance schedule recommended by your vehicle's manufacturer to ensure optimal performance, reliability, and safety. The logbook, outlines specific service intervals and tasks tailored to your vehicle's make, model, and age.

Many people believe they must go back to a car dealership for New Car Log Book servicing in order to maintain the warranty. Actually, the ACCC have consistently confirmed that under Australian Law, you are free to have your car service carried out by a mechanic or service centre of your choice provided they are qualified to do so.
