Yes, logbook servicing can affect your warranty, but only if it’s not done correctly. To keep your warranty valid, you need to follow the manufacturer’s service schedule and have the service performed by a qualified mechanic. The mechanic should use parts that meet or exceed the manufacturer’s standards. It’s important that each service is properly recorded in your logbook, including the date, kilometres, and any work performed. Failure to stick to this schedule or use appropriate parts could result in warranty claims being denied.

A diesel mechanic specialises in repairing and maintaining diesel engines. These engines are commonly found in trucks, buses, 4x4s, and some cars. Diesel mechanics are trained to diagnose issues like power loss, fuel inefficiency, and engine noise. They handle tasks such as turbocharger maintenance, injector repairs, and engine rebuilds. Diesel engines require specific tools and knowledge due to their unique design and operation. Regular maintenance by a diesel mechanic ensures that your vehicle continues to run smoothly and efficiently.

Diesel vehicles typically require servicing every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometres, depending on the manufacturer’s recommendations. It’s important to follow the specified intervals to maintain performance and prevent costly repairs down the line. Regular services include oil and filter changes, checking the turbocharger, inspecting fuel injectors, and cleaning air filters. Servicing also helps maintain fuel efficiency, power output, and reduces harmful emissions. If your diesel vehicle experiences heavy use, such as towing or frequent off-road driving, more frequent servicing may be required.
