Book Your Full Car Service Today
AutoAdvisor can connect you with trusted garages in your area so you can book your car in for a full service with confidence.
A full service is an examination and analysis of all the important systems in your vehicle to make sure they’re running safely and reliably.
During a service there is a top-up of all the car’s fluids, a clean of components and a comprehensive check carried out of the parts that endure the most wear and tear.
Full services also involve topping up fluids, cleaning major components and checking over the parts that are the most subject to wear and tear. Many garages offer discounted tyres & MOT’s if you book in for a full service – it’s always worth asking.

This all depends on your make and model of car and what, if any, extra work needs to be done. On average you can expect to pay around £150 for a full car service.
