YouÔÇÖre probably used to using a main dealer for your servicing. ThatÔÇÖs a safe option but an expensive one. We can offer all the benefits of a main dealer operation ÔÇô skilled mechanics, the latest diagnostic equipment, original manufacturersÔÇÖ components ÔÇô but without the huge mark-ups and sky-high hourly rates.

Importantly, we are still a family firm ÔÇô the founding director Mr Ali, is still involved very much in the day-to-day running ÔÇô which means that we can deliver the kind of personal service that you rarely encounter in the impersonal world of modern business. Ali started his working career at Toyota, the main franchise dealer based on Leeds Road in Huddersfield. He worked there for seven years as a senior automotive technician before deciding to open up Five Star Autocentre. We are committed to giving you best value. We will not tell you something needs doing when it doesnÔÇÖt. ThatÔÇÖs the principle on which we have become successful and we are confident that once you try us, you will not be disappointed.

Frequently Asked Questions on Full and Interim Services

What does a full service include?

A full service is thorough. It includes checking and replacing the engine oil and all filters. It also involves inspecting brakes, tyres, lights, and exhaust systems. Safety features like seatbelts and airbags are tested. The suspension, steering, and battery are assessed too. Check the specifics to know what your mechanic includes. A full service makes sure every key system in your car is optimised for performance and safety.

How often should I book a full service for my car?

Usually, a full service is needed once a year or every 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. This depends on what your car’s manufacturer says, so check your owner’s manual or ask your service provider for advice.

What’s included in an interim service?

An interim service includes changing the engine oil and oil filter. Essential fluids are topped up, and key components like tyres, lights, and wipers are checked. It’s designed to keep your car safe and reliable between full services, especially if you drive a lot each year.

How often should you get an interim service?

For frequent drivers, an interim service is should be every 6 months or every 6,000 miles. This helps make sure that often used cars stay in good condition.

What’s the difference between a full service and an interim service?

A full service is more detailed and includes a complete list of checks and recommendations for part replacements. An interim service focuses on the essentials to keep your car running safely and efficiently between full services.

Is it worth getting a full service with an MOT?

Combining a full service with an MOT can be very useful. It makes sure your car meets legal safety and emissions standards and is in top condition. This combination is cost-effective, convenient, and reduces the need for multiple garage visits.
