- service indicator is on
- you bought a used car and want a health check

What maintenance includes
Scope depends on car, mileage, age, and manufacturer schedule. Basic service usually covers oil and filters, fluids, brakes, tyres, suspension, lights, battery, and general condition.
Extended service may include spark plugs, brake fluid, coolant, gearbox oil, belts, pulleys, and other items per the schedule.
Seasonal service in Finland
Before winter, check battery, plugs, brakes, tyres, lights, wipers, heater, coolant, and seals. A weak battery, old fluid, or worn tyres can cause serious problems in frost.
After winter, check suspension, brakes, body, underbody, wheel arches, and corrosion. Salt and moisture speed wear, especially on city roads.
Service after buying used
If you bought used and are unsure of history, start with a basic check. The mechanic can change oil and filters and inspect brakes, suspension, fluids, faults, belts, and major parts.
This shows real condition and helps plan upcoming costs.
