Need a logbook service in Melbourne? You Midas well have the best. A logbook service is performed in regular intervals as specified by the car manufacturer, so your vehicle is always running as it should.
During the warranty period of your new vehicle, it does not need to be serviced by the car dealer. The ACCC allows independent repairers such as Midas to sign and stamp your service logbook, and this does not impact your statutory warranty period as long as the repairer is qualified, follows the manufacturer’s requirements, and uses products that meet the original specification. For more information regarding consumer rights and servicing vehicles under warranty, please read this information booklet from the Australian Automotive Aftermarket Association.
Do I need a logbook service or a basic service?
A logbook service has different guidelines to a basic or minor service. If your vehicle is still covered under warranty, then a logbook service will follow the exact specifications of the manufacturer to ensure that your warranty is validated. A basic service is ideal if your car is no longer under warranty and requires minor items such as an engine oil and oil filter change.
Our logbook car service in Melbourne includes all parts, oils and scheduled service items, including a Midas safety check and vehicle inspection report. Not only are they great value for money, but you also have the added convenience of maintaining your vehicle at your local Midas shop.

FAQs
Do I need a logbook service or a basic car service?
If you’ve got a brand new car, a logbook service ensures that the manufacturer’s procedures are strictly followed to validate your warranty. If your vehicle is no longer covered under warranty, then you may just need a basic or minor service to check all necessary items and replace your engine oil and filter.
How often should I get a full service for my car?
Your logbook will outline the manufacturer’s regular intervals for servicing. As a guide, new cars should be serviced every six months, or 10,000km – whichever occurs first. Older vehicles should be serviced more frequently, especially if they are regularly driven on rough terrain; we recommend every three months, or 5,000km.
What do I do in case of a problem/if an issue persists?
When you book in for a regular logbook service in Melbourne, our experienced car mechanics can detect any issues before they worsen. If the problem persists, get in touch with us for a full inspection – we’ll recommend the best course of action, which may include repairs if necessary.
