Please Note: The Midas Essential and Extensive Services do not replace a Manufacturer’s Handbook Service; however, it may be all that is needed, especially as your vehicle gets older or when you want the assurance of extra care.

* Synthetic Oils incur additional costs.  Our inspection of your vehicle may reveal the need for extra work. We will provide a quotation for any additional work or parts that your vehicle may require or that we may suggest for safe and reliable motoring.

We may also recommend other items including an engine flush treatment to maximise the effectiveness of your oil change, as well as a fuel treatment to help clean the fuel system and improve performance and economy.

However, nothing will be added without contacting you first, explaining the need and gaining your approval.

FAQ

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I GET MY CAR SERVICED?

New vehicles should be serviced every six months, or 10,000km (whichever comes first). If you own an older vehicle, however, or you drive in harsh conditions, it is recommended that you have it serviced every three months or 5,000km. 

WILL I BE SHOWN WHAT WILL BE DONE TO MY CAR WHEN IT’S SERVICED?

Absolutely. We always take the time to walk customers through exactly what will be done to their car during a service. This is to ensure you understand what we do and why we do it. If you have any questions or concerns, you can always speak to one of our friendly team members. 

WHAT DO I DO IN CASE OF A PROBLEM/IF AN ISSUE PERSISTS?

Regular servicing by a qualified team such as Midas is a great way to keep your car running like a dream for years to come.
