Logbook Car Service Midland

Maintaining regular logbook servicing is the minimum requirement to ensure your warranty remains valid. It can also extend the expected life of your vehicle.

All new cars come with a logbook, supplied by the manufacturer and contains the service information required to maintain your vehicle. It is also used as a reference of all services performed over the life of your vehicle and helps increase the value of the vehicle for resale purposes. All logbook services must be completed in accordance to the timeline set out for your vehicle. This can be determined by date (time between service) or mileage (distance travelled between service).

A logbook service will include a stamp by an authorised dealer or mechanical service centre who meets all of the requirements to maintain your vehicle’s warranty.

This is why we recommend going with a mechanic you can trust!
