SERVICING & VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
At Matt's Motors, Mildenhall we offer a wide variety of motor services to keep your vehicle running smoothly. If your car is not working as well as it could, we guarantee our expert mechanics will do their best to get your car back in shape and on the road as soon as possible.
Why service your car?
The varied service levels are essential for preventing long-lasting engine damage, maintaining your vehicle's performance, ensuring emissions are minimal, replenishing/replacing oils and fluids, replacing vehicle parts, highlighting issues that could cause costly damage and/or risk safety, and finally provide the vehicle owner with improved peace of mind.
When to service your car.
An Interim Service is usually required every six months, depending on how many miles you drive, and should be undertaken annually if you have driven fewer than 6,000 miles.
A Full, or Annual Service, should be carried out every year or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. Many manufacturers suggest a two-year, or 24,000 miles service to maintain aspects such as brake fluid. We can accommodate service schedules outlined by manufacturers; please contact us for details.
Service Levels & Pricing
We offer Interim and Full (Annual) car services as well as a simple oil and filter change. Each of these services includes different checks and maintenance on your vehicle.
