So many people own cars and yet still do not realise the importance of regular services. If the car is new then you may be more tempted to keep up with a service schedule but as the car gets older people become less inclined to spend money on it.

The oil is usually changed at a service along with the filters and this can make a huge difference to the running of the vehicle. Many garages have caught on to the fact that some people do not want to spend hundreds of pounds on an old car getting a full service done so they are now offering just oil and filter change or mini services from as little as £40.

This is well worth the money and you will be hard pushed to do the job much cheaper yourself. Just this simple change could make your engine run a lot smoother and just keep it going that bit longer.
