Logbook Servicing What Is Logbook Servicing?
Logbook servicing is the regular maintenance recommended by your vehicle manufacturer. Your vehicle's logbook or service schedule sets out when each service is due and what needs to be checked, serviced or replaced at each interval.
Servicing at the recommended intervals helps keep your vehicle running reliably, identify potential problems early and maintain a record of your vehicle's servicing history.
At Wollongong Auto Excellence, we follow the manufacturer's recommended service schedule for your vehicle and carry out the required checks and maintenance.
Logbook Servicing What's Included in a Logbook Service?

- Brake and tyre inspections
- Battery and electrical checks

If we find an issue that requires attention outside the scheduled service, we'll explain what we've found and provide a clear quote before carrying out any additional repairs.
FAQ's Common questions
How often does my car need a logbook service?
Your vehicle's service interval depends on the make and model. Most vehicles require servicing at set kilometre or time intervals. Check your logbook or service schedule to see when your next service is due.
Can you service my new car?
Yes. We can carry out logbook servicing for new and late-model vehicles according to the manufacturer's recommended service schedule.

What happens if my car is overdue for a service?
If your vehicle is overdue for a service, it's best to book it as soon as possible. Regular servicing helps identify wear and developing problems before they become more serious.
Do I need to bring my logbook with me?
If you have a physical logbook, bring it with you so we can record the service details. If your vehicle uses a digital service history, let our team know when booking your service.
