But the reality is, delaying your car’s maintenance could end up costing you far more in the long run.
Routine servicing isn’t just about oil changes or ticking off a logbook requirement. It’s about picking up small issues before they turn into major (and expensive) repairs. From a $20 coolant top-up preventing a $2,000 head gasket job, to a simple brake check saving your rotors, smart servicing saves you money—not the other way around.

You reverse off the driveway and there is a stain on the concrete where the car was. Colour gets you most of the way to what it is, and where it sits under the car gets you the rest. Here is what each one usually means, which two are worth stopping for, and the cardboard trick that finds the source overnight.
You ring up to book a service and the first thing you are asked is which one you want. Nobody explains the question, so most people guess. The short answer is that a logbook service follows the list your manufacturer wrote, a standard service follows the workshop’s own, and which you need comes down mostly to whether the car is still under warranty.
