Servicing

Can an independent garage service my car without affecting the warranty?

Yes. UK competition rules mean a manufacturer cannot refuse warranty cover just because the car was serviced by an independent garage, as long as the work follows the manufacturer's schedule and uses parts of matching quality.

What protects your warranty

  • Servicing at the intervals the manufacturer sets
  • Parts that match the original quality (we use genuine parts where the warranty requires them)
  • Correct fluids and specifications for your model
  • A stamped service record or digital service history update

Why drivers choose an independent

At an independent garage you deal directly with the people booking your car in and working on it. We service all makes and models, including hybrid and electric vehicles, with dealer-level diagnostics on site, and Jaguar and Land Rover are a speciality.

Common questions

Does an independent service update the digital service history?
Ask when you book: most manufacturers now let independent garages add services to the digital record, and we will tell you how it works for your make.
