FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. How often should I get a full car service?
   Most vehicle manufacturers recommend a full car service every 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. This schedule ensures your vehicle receives regular maintenance at appropriate intervals. If you drive frequently in Bromley, in demanding conditions (lots of short journeys, towing, or dusty environments), or cover high mileage, you may benefit from more frequent servicing. Check your vehicle handbook for manufacturer-specific recommendations, and we can advise on the best service schedule for your driving habits.
2. What's the difference between interim, full, and major service?
   An interim service is a lighter check typically performed every 6 months or 6,000 miles, covering essential items like oil changes and basic safety checks. A full service is more comprehensive, performed annually or at 12,000 miles, including all interim service items plus extensive inspection of brakes, suspension, and all major systems. A major service, usually every 24 months or 24,000 miles, is the most thorough and includes everything in a full service plus additional items like spark plug replacement and more detailed component inspections. We follow manufacturer service schedules to ensure your vehicle receives the appropriate level of service at the right intervals.
3. How long does a full car service take?
   A typical full car service at our Bromley workshops takes 2-3 hours to complete, depending on your vehicle's make, model, and condition. Some vehicles with more complex systems may require additional time. Most services can be completed the same day if you book early in the morning. We'll give you an estimated completion time when you book, and we'll contact you if we discover any issues that might extend the service time.
4. Will servicing at an independent garage affect my manufacturer warranty?
   No, having your vehicle serviced at an independent garage like Sanu Motors in Bromley will not affect your manufacturer warranty, provided the service is completed according to the manufacturer's schedule using appropriate quality parts. UK and EU law protects your right to choose where you have your vehicle serviced. We follow manufacturer service schedules precisely, use genuine or OEM-equivalent parts, and stamp your service book to maintain your full service history. This ensures your warranty remains valid while saving you money compared to main dealer prices.
5. What if you find additional problems during the service?
   We'll always contact you before carrying out any work beyond the standard service items. We'll explain what we've found, why it needs attention, the implications of delaying the repair, and provide a clear, itemized quote. You're never obligated to proceed with additional work immediately - we simply want you to make informed decisions about your vehicle's care. If something needs urgent attention for safety reasons, we'll make that clear. For non-urgent items, we'll advise when the work should be done, giving you time to plan and budget accordingly.
6. Do I need to bring anything with me?
   Please bring your vehicle keys, service history book (if you have one), and your locking wheel nut key if your vehicle is fitted with locking wheel nuts. If you've recently had any work done elsewhere or have specific concerns about your vehicle, any related paperwork can be helpful. If you're using our Bromley workshop, that's all you need - we'll take care of everything else.
7. Can I wait while my car is being serviced?
   While we don't have a traditional waiting area, many customers prefer to drop their vehicle off and collect it later, or use our collection and delivery service (charges apply within 5-mile radius covering Bromley and surrounding areas). For customers who prefer to stay local, Bromley town center is nearby with plenty of cafes, shops, and amenities. Same-day service is typically available with early morning booking.
8. What's included in a full car service?
   Our full car service includes engine oil and filter change, air filter replacement, comprehensive fluid level checks and top-ups, brake system inspection, suspension and steering examination, tyre checks, battery testing, lights and electrical system verification, exhaust system inspection, and detailed assessment of over 50 critical components. We follow manufacturer service schedules and use diagnostic equipment to scan for fault codes. Every service includes a detailed report of our findings, service book stamping, and recommendations for any future maintenance.
9. Do you service all makes and models?
   Yes, we service all makes and models of cars and light commercial vehicles at our Bromley workshops. Whether you drive a Ford, Vauxhall, BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Volkswagen, Toyota, Honda, Nissan, or any other manufacturer, our experienced technicians have the expertise and diagnostic equipment to service your vehicle to manufacturer standards. We service petrol, diesel, and hybrid vehicles.
