service
The 6-year service is one of the biggest on most cars’ schedules. It typically adds spark plugs, coolant and drive belts — the parts that wear slowly but cause big breakdowns when they finally go.

About this service
The major service most people put off
By six years, rubber and fluids have aged even if the car has done low kilometres. Coolant loses its corrosion protection, brake fluid absorbs water, and belts and hoses harden and crack.
We complete your manufacturer’s 6-year checklist and inspect the items that often need attention at this age — including the timing belt interval on cars that have one.

Signs it’s time
Rough idle or hesitation
Worn spark plugs are a common cause.
Belt squeal on start-up
Ageing drive belts glaze and slip.
Coolant looks rusty or low
Old coolant stops protecting the engine.

FAQ
6 Year Service questions
What’s done at a 6 year service?
Usually an oil and filter change plus spark plugs, coolant, brake fluid and filters, with a full inspection. The exact list depends on your manufacturer’s schedule.
Does the 6 year service include the timing belt?
Not usually — it’s a separate job. But many timing belts are due around this age, so we check your interval and quote it if needed.
My car has low kilometres. Do I still need it?
Yes. Fluids and rubber parts age with time, not just distance.
