Servicing menu

Our different levels of service are designed to meet the varying needs of vehicles, regardless of age, condition or history. We recommend a service every six months or 10,000 km and a brake check, clean and adjust for cars with every lubrication service (included in the Platinum service). We will test or inspect fluids, filters and only recommend items that need replacing, saving you time and money in the long run.  

Recommendations

Petrol and diesel cars

We recommend a service every 10,000km or six months (whichever occurs first).

Which service suits you

First choose the level of service based on the type of vehicle you have

Then choose the level of service depending on your annual mileage or manufacturer recommendations and time since your last visit.

As a general guide we suggest the following service pattern for a petrol vehicle. If you require more detail about vehicle servicing including diesel engines please refer to the manufactures recommendation or contact your local AA Auto Centre.

We suggest the following:

AA Bronze Service™ - Six month interim vehicle service

This six month, 20-point service is designed for the high mileage car user, or where the manufacturer recommends more frequent checks. This service helps maintain your vehicle and prevents unforeseen faults. Included are oil changes, oil filter replacement and a wide range of checks on the fundamental items. The AA Bronze service should be performed at six month intervals between annual services.

AA Silver Service™ or AA Gold Service™ - 12 month full vehicle service

This is a comprehensive, annual service to ensure your car is running as smoothly and efficiently as possible. The 30-point AA Silver Service and the 40-point AA Gold Service cover checks and adjustments including engine oil change, oil filter change and a road test. High quality parts and lubricants are always used. Additional items are also checked such as the drive belts, fuel filter and spark plug condition. If they need replacement, we’ll let you know. 

AA Platinum Service™ - 24 month major vehicle service

The AA Platinum Service™ covers all areas of essential maintenance. As well as featuring the 40 checks and adjustments found in the AA Gold Service, the comprehensive 50-point Platinum Service includes a wheels off, brake inspection and rotating tyres if required.
