A minor servicing generally includes a comprehensive vehicle inspection and diagnostic checks, engine oil and filter replacement, by a professional technician. It can be part of the logbook service, and sometimes it will be referred to as a basic or oil change service.

As a rough guideline – this really depends on our vehicle, manufacturer requirements, engine type and how your vehicle is being used – a minor service is required every 10,000km or every year.

Not all oil change services are created equally. During your full-service oil change at Ihanzu Auto, an expert technician will:

• Change your vehicle’s motor oil using full synthetic blend engine oil, depending on your vehicle.
• Replace your oil filter
• Inspect your vehicle’s cabin filter and air filter as needed, as well as any other filters
• Perform a courtesy inspection, where the automotive technician will:
  • Top off window washer fluid and check the levels of other important fluids
  • Check vehicle lights (including signals and brake lights)
  • Lubricate chassis as necessary
  • Inspect belts, hoses, steering, suspension, skid plates and undercarriage
  • Check windshield wipers
  • Check car battery
  • Visually inspect for vehicle damage
