Toyotas are built to last

Recently we serviced an old Toyota Hilux with a whopping 571,000kms on the clock. Original Engine! The owner wants to make the 1,000,000 kms mark.

The highest that I have personally seen was on a Toyota Corolla AE101 Csi, it was a driving school vehicle and had 660,000klms on the clock. Serviced religiously every 5000 kms, shows that it pays to keep your car maintained.

Regular Toyota servicing and maintenance is essential

Unfortunately we recently had a Toyota Rav 4 that needed some serious TLC. It came in with a rattly engine and missed numerous oil changes, the oil hadn’t been replaced in 45,000 kms.

Lack of oil change and poor quality oil allows excessive carbon to build up, this in turn blocks the oil galleries that allow engine oil to flow through the engine and keep everything lubricated. No lubrication in an engine will only have detrimental results and cost the driver money. Don’t let that be you!

Toyota Control Arm Bushes

Toyota Camry 2003 – 2006 Front Control arm bushes; getting to the 10 + year age mark, we are regularly seeing these vehicles requiring new control arm bushes. To be clearer with the terminology, most mechanics will label them as the “rear bush on the front control arm”. The good news is that the bushes alone can be replaced, supplied and fitted, sometimes a wheel alignment will be required after the repair which would be an additional cost however we can advise on this after road testing your vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if you see something that needs repair while you’re servicing my Toyota?

Sometimes during a Toyota service we may uncover a repair that needs to be carried out. If this happens when we are servicing your car, we’ll contact you immediately to let you know the repair needed, the cost involved and to request your approval before carrying out the repair. This way there are no nasty surprises or ‘bill shock’ when you come to collect your car.

Repairs that often come up include:

Coolant flush
In tank fuel filter replacement
Timing belt replacement
Air filter replacement
Spark plugs
Cabin filter
Brake fluid flush

Is a Roadworthy Certificate the same as a Certificate of Inspection?

How often should I get my Toyota serviced?

We always recommend 6 month/10,000km service intervals.

Perhaps you have been told this is not necessary anymore – for certain car models the service interval (the period of time between recommended services) can now can range from 10,000 to 25,000kms and even up to 2 years.

Car engines and oil quality has improved greatly over the years and as a result, manufacturers have increased the service intervals.

Unfortunately this may offer a false sense of security to car owners. Sticking to the recommended manufacturer service intervals does not guarantee your engine will remain trouble-free.

In most car manuals, it will mention factors that impact the service intervals like personal driving habits and road conditions where the service intervals by kilometres do not apply.

That’s why we think sticking to 6-months / 10,000km is best. It helps to keep your car in good condition and maximises the opportunity to be proactive about repairs before they become an issue.

Why is it so important to change your car oil?

Just like humans need water, cars need oil. Without it, your car won’t be lubricated, causing deterioration inside your engine and potentially everyone’s worst nightmare – a breakdown.

Water vapour, unburnt fuel and gases from the combustion process can overload your engine oil and these combine to form sludge deposits on your engine. Engine sludge clogs the oil galleries and limits lubrication to moving parts inside the engine which can lead to costly repairs.

Your car needs to drive 15 – 20 kilometres for the engine to fully warm up and reduce the rate of contamination. This is why we change the engine oil.

Why do you use a specific type of oil?

When poor quality or incorrect oil is used in an engine it often doesn’t have the right additives or viscosity to begin with, which leads to premature sludge build-up on your engine. On many occasions we’ve seen a vehicle with a full service history from the manufacturer arrive with a sludgy engine. Not good!

That’s why using a quality oil (and changing it regularly) is essential.

When you visit us, take a look at our oil shelf. We usually have over 20 different variants of engine oil in stock. We use Penrite Oils.

We’re serious about putting the right oil in your car and helping your engine last the distance – not adding you to the growing number of car drivers needing an engine replacement.
