What happens inside your car when you miss regular servicing times?

What missing your servicing really looks like?

Today, Rockingham Fleet & Mechanical Services attended to a car with a petrol engine that was 20,000km past it's service due by date. Unfortunately, we see too many vehicles in such condition.

As you can see by the blob of oil on the rag, the engine is so sludged, the oil can be scooped off with a spoon.

If you can afford to do nothing else on you vehicle, at least have it regularly serviced, the ENTIRE engine depends on this.

Every 6 months or 10,000km is a good rule of thumb, after this time, the oil looses it's properties.

Don't let your car turn into this! Book a service with Rockingham Fleet & Mechanical Services today!
