Full Service vs Interim Service – What’s the Difference and Which Do You Need?

Full Service vs Interim Service – What’s the Difference and Which Do You Need?

Many drivers in Poole ask us what the difference is between a full service and an interim service. At Moto-Oil Autocentre, we believe in clear, honest advice so you can make the right decision for your car and driving habits.

Here’s a breakdown of what each service includes and when you should book it:

Interim Service – Every 6 Months or 6,000 Miles

Perfect for high-mileage drivers or those using their vehicle for frequent short trips. An interim service includes:

  • Oil and oil filter change
  • Top-up of essential fluids
  • Brake checks
  • Tyre pressure and tread check
  • 30+ point health inspection

Full Service – Every 12 Months or 12,000 Miles

A comprehensive check-up designed to catch wear and tear and ensure long-term performance. A full service includes everything in an interim service, plus:

  • Air filter replacement
  • Spark plug inspection/replacement
  • Detailed suspension and steering checks
  • Battery testing
  • Thorough vehicle diagnostics

Still unsure which service is right for you? We’re happy to advise based on your car, mileage, and usage. You can book your car service online in just a few clicks, or give us a call for personal help.
