Car Servicing FAQs

How do I know if my car needs a service?

Your car may need a service if it’s been a year or 12,000 miles since the last one, warning lights appear, braking feels different, or you notice odd noises, vibrations, or smoke. Even without clear signs, routine servicing is highly recommended.

Should I service my car regularly?

Regular servicing keeps your car safe, reliable, and roadworthy. It helps spot hidden issues early, prevents costly breakdowns, and ensures essential components like brakes, suspension, and engine are working correctly—all saving you money in the long run.

What are common warning signs that my car needs servicing?

Watch for dashboard warning lights, unusual noises, braking issues, vibrations, or smoke. These signs often point to underlying problems that should be checked by a professional as soon as possible.

Can any garage service an electric vehicle?

No, not all garages are equipped to service electric vehicles. EVs require trained technicians and specific tools. At Ken’s Autos, our team is fully qualified to handle electric car servicing across Nottingham, Mansfield & Derby.

How often should I service my electric car?

Most EVs should be serviced annually, similar to fuel vehicles, often alongside the MOT. However, some manufacturers, like Tesla, recommend servicing every 25,000 miles or every two years—whichever comes first. Frequent drivers may benefit from more regular checks.

Can I service my car myself?

While you can handle basic tasks like checking tyre pressure or topping up fluids, a full car service should be carried out by a qualified mechanic. Professional servicing ensures all systems—like brakes, suspension, and engine—are properly inspected using the right tools and expertise.

Does a car service include an MOT?

No, a service and an MOT are different. An MOT is a legal requirement that checks your car meets minimum safety and environmental standards. A service is a more thorough maintenance check that helps prevent issues before they become serious. Many drivers choose to do both at the same time for convenience.

Will regular servicing improve my car’s resale value?

Yes. A well-documented service history shows potential buyers that the car has been properly maintained, which can increase its resale value and make it easier to sell.
