When you drive away in a new car, it's natural to want to protect your investment, especially when it comes to maintaining the warranty. Many people think that they have to return to the dealership for all their servicing needs, but that's not the case. 

Thanks to Australian Consumer Law, you can choose who services your car without jeopardising your warranty. Opting for an independent service provider like P & L Mechanical Services can save you money while still ensuring top-notch care for your vehicle.

When you purchase a new car, it usually comes with a manufacturer's warranty that covers certain repairs and services for a specific period or mileage. This warranty provides peace of mind, but it's important to understand that you don't have to be tied to your dealership for maintenance and repairs to keep it active.

Servicing your car outside of the dealership network can lead to significant cost savings. Dealerships often charge premium rates for their services, while independent service centers offer competitive pricing without compromising quality. By choosing a trusted local mechanic, you can get the same expert care while keeping some extra cash in your pocket.

Moreover, independent service centers like our Melton South workshop can provide personalised and transparent service. You'll know exactly what work is being done and why, and you can expect straightforward communication about any additional repairs that might be necessary.

P & L Mechanical Services is committed to delivering reliable service that aligns with all warranty requirements. We ensure that our technicians receive ongoing training to stay updated with the latest in vehicle technology. This commitment to excellence means your car gets the care it needs, using quality parts that meet industry standards.

With a network like the Repco Authorised Service, our support system ensures that no matter where you are, you're covered. Each service is backed by a nationwide warranty, offering peace of mind alongside affordability.

Your car, your choice! There's no need to be tied to a dealership for your servicing needs. P & L Mechanical Services is here to offer you exceptional service, friendly communication, and the assurance that your warranty will remain intact. So why not make the switch and enjoy the benefits of choosing a local business.

If you notice your car seems to be suffering from poor fuel economy, is lacking power when accelerating, displays an overall lack of power or the engine seems to be unusually hot all the time, it could be time for a carbon clean.

Diesel engine intake and carbon cleaning is an essential but often overlooked part of maintaining a modern diesel engine. Most people do not realise how much carbon builds up in their engines. It accumulates on pistons, rings, valves and injectors. Build up in EGR valves and intake manifolds causes engines to run rough, have reduced power and use more fuel.

Since 1999 most cars in built in Australia will have an EGR system of some kind. If your vehicle happens to be fitted with an EGR system, there is something you should know. Carbon buildup in Intake Manifold and EGR Valves could be choking your engine.

This is common in both petrol and diesel engines, but turbo and diesel engines tend to be more susceptible to the problem, especially where a PCV system is used. P & L Mechanical Services have the skills and equipment to give your engine a full carbon clean. This helps ensure correct fuel mix, improve efficiency and fuel economy and generally assists in protecting the engine.
