Log Book Servicing is a proactive approach to car maintenance where regular inspections and small fixes keep your vehicle running smoothly and efficiently to prevent small problems turning into major damage and fix minor issues which could otherwise become very costly to repair.

Every passenger car (and most commercial vehicles) should be issued with a “Log Book” by the manufacturer which lays out the specified timing and agenda for your regular log book services. You should keep your log book in your glove box for reference and recording any details, but Western Port Automotive Services can also refer to our database to get the required information if you've misplaced your book.

You may be tempted to delay your next log book service because your car is still essentially driveable and it may not have reached BOTH the time and distance measures. While you obviously need to find availability in your budget and schedule, don't delay too long because wear and tear on the car will increase exponentially and could lead to damage which is many times more expensive than the log book service would have been.
