Service intervals depend on time, kilometres, vehicle design and how the car is used. Here is how to make sense of the schedule and why low annual kilometres do not always mean servicing can be skipped.
Start with the vehicle, not a generic checklist
Modern vehicles vary significantly by engine, transmission, option package and service schedule. The most reliable approach is to identify the exact vehicle and then base maintenance or diagnostic work on the system fitted to it.
Inspection and testing reduce guesswork
Replacing parts without proving the cause can become expensive. Whether the concern is maintenance, a warning light, noise or drivability issue, the workshop should use the available evidence to decide what needs attention now and what can reasonably be monitored.
