Routine service items
These are the items covered in a standard service. Most garages include oil, oil filter and a basic inspection. The rest are typically checked or replaced on a schedule.
| Service item | Interval | Typical cost |
|---|---|---|
|
Engine oil and filter
Manufacturer interval is 12 months/12,500 miles for petrol engines. Use 5W-30 specification oil. Change filter with every oil change. Missing this service voids warranty and accelerates engine wear.

Air filter
Manufacturer interval 2 years or 25,000 miles. Check more frequently in dusty conditions. Clogged filter reduces performance and increases fuel consumption.

Periodic maintenance
Items that don't need doing at every service but should be on your radar at the right mileage or age.
| Service item | Interval | Typical cost |
|---|---|---|
|
Spark plugs
Manufacturer interval 4 years or 50,000 miles. Use correct heat range plugs. Worn plugs cause rough idle, misfiring, and increased emissions.

50,000 miles or 4 years |
£60–£90
Dealer: £100–£150

|
Brake fluid
Mandatory 2-year interval regardless of mileage. Brake fluid absorbs moisture which reduces boiling point and causes internal corrosion. Use DOT 4 specification fluid only.

£50–£80
Dealer: £80–£120

Coolant flush
Manufacturer interval 5 years or 75,000 miles. Use correct G12++ specification coolant. Old coolant loses corrosion protection and can cause radiator and water pump damage.
