Servicing
It’s never been more important to make sure that your vehicle is in tip-top condition, and that means regular servicing.
At Hicks, we use technical data to ensure that your car gets the exact care it deserves – always adhering to manufacturers’ recommendations to make sure your maintenance needs are met. We offer both full and interim services to ensure optimal performance and reliability.
SERVICING
Why do I need to service my car?
Regular servicing is vital to keep your vehicle performing at its best.
For newer cars, sticking to scheduled servicing intervals is a crucial part of maintaining warranty validity.
Missing a service could even void your vehicle’s warranty.
And don’t forget – regular maintenance allows us to identify and address minor issues before they become big concerns, ultimately saving you time and money.

Servicing
In simple terms, a full service includes a detailed check and part replacement recommendations for your car. An interim service is more of a top-up that focuses on the essentials.
To help you work out which one you need, here’s a breakdown of what each includes.
Don’t forget – we offer Payment Assist to help spread costs. Talk to a member of the team to find out more.
We only use genuine manufacturer components designed to match your vehicle’s original specifications for quality, fit and performance. We are also proud to use premium quality Castrol and Forte products in all Hicks services.

Bring locking wheel nuts
If your vehicle is equipped with alloy wheels, please provide the alloy wheel keys or locking nuts, as we’ll need to remove the wheels as part of some services.
