"As i tell everybody , if it isnt broken dont fix it , your mot each year pretty much tells you your car is safe and advises you of anything that needs attention. servicing your car makes no difference whatsoever to your vehicle , your just throwing your money away . ive had my 2008 car 4 years now , every 10,000 miles i have the engine and oil filter changed and fuel filter, still going strong and passes its mot, i do only do 7kmiles a year though. the money ive saved not having it serviced i can buy another second hand car when current one needs changing." Is that not technically servicing it every 10,000 miles though?! | |||

This is absolutely daft!!! The MOT fixes unsafe issues…the advisories tell you what needs to fixed before the next MOT…Servicing is exactly what you just mentioned…I change all the filters do an annual oil change and flush I also check all the brakes and pads before the MOT same with the suspension as I seem to go through CV joints and Bushings like they’re out of fashion (though he’s lowered by 4” so that’s my own fault) 230,000 96’ VW diesel so his engine is really only just breaking in to be fair | |||

You’re describing what’s called a basic service. Oil and filters = basic service. " google it , it will explain it better than me typing it. oil and filter is a specific job /request, a sevice costs a lot more for no gain as your mot has checked everything yearly and advised you of anything that needs attention. | |||

For a start you say you don’t have a service, then go on to say you have the engine oil and filter changed and fuel filter so that in itself is a service. As for the MOT telling you your car is safe, all it does is tell you that on that day at that time it fulfilled the requirements of an MOT test. It won’t tell you what state your cambelts in it won’t tell you what the level of pad or shoe wear is on your brakes , it has to pass an efficiency test on the rollers, this won’t tell you if they are going to need changing in the next few months , the pads could be well shot before your next MOT and you end up scoring the discs all to fuck. The MOT won’t be testing the strength of your antifreeze or the level and state of the oil in your gearbox or axle. Lots of service stuff is within the scope of a relatively competent home mechanic so if you wanted to do it yourself fine but it still needs doing. Thinking your MOT is any kind of service substitute is just a crock of shite. | |||

Erm how to put this... thats because you're servicing your car every 10k having the oil filter, oil and fuel filter changed!  | |||

" absolutely right " it won’t tell you what the level of pad or shoe wear is on your brakes " Not strictly true, if the pad wear can be seen without removing the wheel, then it can be reported, and failed if the pads are deemed to be less than 1.5 mm | |||

" ... Yep, that’s a basic service he’s having. " So, what do you get with a VIP special? Does your car 'get to come twice' to be serviced? Do any places offer 'a trip round the world' as yet another extra? | |||

This has made me chuckle ! I always try and recommend that people get their mot done and then their service six months later so their car is checked more often. I could go for a mot tomorrow and in a few months something like suspension drop links could be on the way out. Simple things like stripping and cleaning/re greasing the brakes could save having sticking calipers etc which is a lot more costly to change. | |||

" Does anybody replace brake fluid and/or bleed brakes any more? ...and what became of that idea of changing the air in tyres for an inert gas? Don't remind me about drop links. I had a vehicle for 15 years equipped with that money making wheeze! Been lucky with my current two not having them but I've noticed they are back on the next one which will be coming my way (when its female owner gets fed up with being ripped off for sevicing). | |||

I think you'll find many "refugees" would love a job. I'm sure a few would be happy in the military too. But is the subtext of your post that women should put up with this because they (and those pesky refugees) can't do without us? It wouldn't take much to find out about sexism and its impact on the workforce. If the UK (indeed most of the world) had been different in years gone by, there'd be a lot more female mechanics for women or men to choose from. Gbat | |||
