What is basic service?

Routine maintenance tailored to your vehicle: oil and filter, fluid levels, key safety checks and a short report on anything that needs attention.

Signs you need it

  • It's been a year or the kilometres since your last service
  • Oil change reminder
  • Before a long trip

How it works

  1. Engine oil and filter replaced
  2. Fluid levels checked and topped up
  3. Brakes, tyres, lights and wipers checked
  4. Belts and hoses inspected
  5. Report on anything needing attention

You can choose a workshop visit or have a professional come to your home, work or depot.

How much does it cost?

The exact price depends on your vehicle and the job. On MYLES, each professional shows a fixed price, a starting price, a range, or sends a quote — so you can compare like for like before you book.

  • Engine type and oil specification
  • Parts required
  • Workshop or mobile

Tips

  • Follow your manufacturer's schedule
  • Keep the service record
  • Ask for photos of any issues found

Why it matters

Regular servicing keeps your engine healthy, catches small problems early and protects resale value.
