Interim car service in Erdington
The in-between service for cars that cover high mileage: every 6 months or 6,000 miles, with the oil and filter changed and the essentials checked.
Get your service price
An interim service sits between full services. It is for cars that cover more than average mileage, or whose driving is hard on oil: lots of short trips, heavy traffic, towing. Every 6 months or 6,000 miles, whichever comes first.
Fresh oil is the heart of it. Oil breaks down with use, and short trips often do not get it hot enough to burn off moisture, so changing it between full services keeps the engine protected.
Alongside the oil and filter we top up the fluids, check the brake pads, pipes and handbrake, the lights, horn, wipers and washers, look for leaks, check the antifreeze, and give you advice on when the timing belt is due.
It does not replace the yearly full service: most cars still need one every 12 months.

Common questions
Do I need an interim service?
If you cover high mileage, or your driving is mostly short trips, it keeps the oil fresh between full services. If you do average mileage, a full service every year is usually enough.
Is AdBlue topped up?
On diesels that use it, yes, with the AdBlue used charged as an extra.
Is it recorded in my service history?
Yes. Every service we do is recorded in the car's service history.
