A logbook service follows your manufacturer’s service schedule, so your car gets the right work at the right time. To keep your new car warranty valid, your car needs to be serviced to that schedule by licensed, qualified technicians.
At Midland Tune and Service Centre, we’re fully licensed and authorised to do logbook servicing in Midland for most makes and models. We follow the manufacturer’s specifications, use high quality parts and oils, and stamp your logbook every time.
We also give you clear information about any issues we find, so problems can be raised with the manufacturer before your warranty expires.
Why logbook servicing matters beyond the warranty
Your manufacturer sets out when each part of your car should be serviced, repaired or replaced, based on its expected lifespan. Sticking to that schedule throughout your car’s life helps you avoid breakdowns and keeps it running safely for years to come.
A completed, up to date logbook also helps maintain your car’s value at resale or trade-in, as buyers can see it’s been looked after.
A major logbook service replaces or services items such as spark plugs, transmission oils and drive belts, as your manufacturer stipulates. What’s included varies with every make and model, so check your logbook.
In between, an interim logbook service covers the same checks as our car lube service.

- Changing the engine oil and the oil filter

Logbook service FAQs
What is a logbook service?
A logbook service is a service done to your manufacturer’s schedule, as set out in your car’s logbook. It must be done by licensed, qualified technicians following the manufacturer’s specifications, and your logbook is stamped once it’s done.
What does a logbook service include?
It depends on your car’s make, model and kilometres. Each service covers the items your manufacturer schedules at that point, along with our standard checks of oils, fluids, brakes, steering, suspension, tyres, battery and lights.
What’s the difference between a logbook service and a regular service?
A logbook service follows your manufacturer’s schedule, so the work changes from one service to the next. Interim logbook services cover the same checks as our standard lube service, while major logbook services also replace items like spark plugs, transmission oils and drive belts.
Do I need to go to the dealer for a logbook service?
No. Our workshop provides servicing that complies with your manufacturer’s warranty, with all work done by licensed technicians and parts, fluids and servicing replaced as your logbook schedule stipulates.
Will a logbook service keep my warranty valid?
Yes. We complete and stamp your logbook and give you a full, detailed invoice with a vehicle report every service, so you have no problems if you ever need to make a warranty claim.
Is a logbook service worth it?
Following your manufacturer’s schedule helps keep your car running trouble free and improves its longevity. It also helps maintain your car’s value for resale or trade-in.
How often should I get a logbook service?
Most manufacturers set out timeframes or distances in your logbook. Generally, you should schedule a service every six months or 10,000km.
How long does a logbook service take?
It depends on the work required and your car’s make and model. We ask for a minimum of 5 hours so our technicians can inspect your car thoroughly without rushing.
Can I still get a logbook service if my logbook is missing?
Yes. We have access to the logbook schedules for all makes and models.
Do you offer loan cars or drop-offs?
Yes. Loan cars and local drop-offs can be booked. Just ask our team when you make your appointment.
Will I know the cost before work starts?
Yes. We’re transparent with our pricing, and if you ask, our team will give you the cost of your service before we start.
