Vehicle Servicing

Regular servicing keeps your vehicle running safely and efficiently, and helps catch small issues before they turn into bigger, more expensive problems. It's also key to maintaining your vehicle's reliability and resale value over time.

Interim, Full & Manufacturer Servicing

Servicing to Manufacturer Standard

We carry out interim, full and manufacturer services on all makes and models, from family hatchbacks to vans and prestige vehicles. Using the correct parts and fluids for your vehicle helps us ensure your warranty stays protected even outside of a main dealer. Whether you're due a routine service or it's been a while since your last one, we'll check everything that matters and let you know if anything needs attention.

Took my Tesla Model 3 to Cedar Garage on Tarring Road after an aftermarket body kit's rear diffuser brake light caused hyper-flashing when braking and indicating. Jake was fantastic-he diagnosed the wiring issue quickly and had it sorted on the spot. I was back on the road in under an hour with everything working flawlessly. Jake is a top bloke: friendly, informative, and skilled. Outstanding service!

I feel fortunate to have found Cedar Garage to look after my car. It’s always good to be able to trust the skill, care and attention given as well as friendly communication and advice. They collected and returned my vehicle too, what’s not to like?
