Regular servicing of your car can make the difference between it running smoothly and fuel efficiently, and the risk of it breaking down and incurring an expensive and unexpected repair. It can be a false economy to avoid regular car servicing since expected wear and tear requiring minor maintenance can fast become a costly major repair or replacement.

Most modern cars only need servicing once a year, but older cars may require a service up to every 6 months.

Types of Car Servicing available in Eastbourne.

  • Oil and Filter Change

    Get an oil and filter change before your oil light comes on. Your oil has a life limit so a regular oil and filter change helps to maintain a healthy engine. Old and dirty oil can cause premature wear to vital components and affect performance. An oil and filter change does not replace a service but is a great way to ensure protection for your engine if your service is not due for a while.

Car Servicing in Eastbourne, from a garage you can trust.

The manufacturer’s service handbook will advise what is best for your car. The type of service you require will be influenced by how you use your car. For example, if you only use it for short journeys where the engine may not have a chance to fully warm-up, you may need more frequent oil and filter changes.

During the course of a car servicing at Southern Co, if we spot any additional work required we will report back to you for your authorisation; the price agreed before the service will be the price you pay unless you authorise us to complete additional work. We pride ourselves on our complete transparency and will never recommend work you don’t genuinely need.

At Southern Co, you can be assured of a great service with our car servicing. If your car is under warranty, your vehicle will retain its warranty cover, while we guarantee parts and labour for 12 months. Why go to a main dealer when you can get it for a fraction of the cost?
