Frequently Asked Questions
Can I choose where to get my logbook service done?
Yes. In Australia, you are not required to return to the dealership for logbook servicing. Independent workshops can legally perform the service as long as they follow the manufacturer’s specifications and use quality parts and fluids. The service must also be recorded in your logbook to remain valid for warranty purposes. This gives you the flexibility to choose a trusted local mechanic without losing warranty protection.
What happens if my logbook isn’t stamped correctly?
If your logbook is not properly completed, you may have difficulty proving that scheduled servicing was done according to manufacturer requirements. This can cause problems when making warranty claims or selling the vehicle, as buyers often look for a complete service history. The record should include the date, mileage, service details, and the mechanic’s credentials. Ensuring the stamp and details are accurate helps maintain your car’s value and warranty security.
How often do manufacturers require logbook servicing?
The frequency depends on the make, model, and age of your vehicle. Some manufacturers recommend servicing every 10,000 kilometres, while others extend intervals to 15,000 kilometres or 12 months. Hybrid and electric vehicles may have different schedules again. The service logbook provides exact intervals tailored to your car, and following this schedule ensures the best balance of performance, safety, and warranty protection.
