Why Regular Car Servicing is Essential

Brands recommend servicing every 10,000 miles or 12 months. That’s because routine servicing:

  • Enhances fuel economy and performance

  • Detects early symptom breaks before costly repairs occur

  • Protects your manufacturer’s warranty

  • Extends resale value

  • Ensures your vehicle remains safe and roadworthy

Skipping services can lead to reduced dependability, unresolved faults, and voided warranties — even with service plans in place. At MB Motors, we follow manufacturer specifications to safeguard both your car and warranty.

Watch: Turbo Failure Caused by Poor Servicing – Real-World Example at MB Motors Rugeley

In this real example from our workshop at MB Motors Rugeley, we uncover a failed turbocharger caused by neglected servicing and poor oil maintenance. Lack of oil changes over time leads to sludge buildup, blocked oil feed lines, and ultimately, catastrophic turbo failure.

Turbo systems rely on clean, high-quality oil to stay lubricated and cool. When servicing is skipped or delayed, the result is often costly — requiring full turbo replacement or even engine repair. At MB Motors, we use Castrol-approved oils and follow strict manufacturer guidelines to protect your engine and turbocharger systems.

Watch: Turbo Failure Caused by Bad Oil and Lack of Servicing – MB Motors Rugeley

This video captures a turbocharger failure caused by bad oil quality and poor servicing history. Contaminated, degraded engine oil led to oil starvation within the turbo system, causing severe mechanical damage and failure. Regular servicing with high-quality oil is vital to protect components like turbos, timing chains, and DPF systems.

At MB Motors Rugeley, we see these issues daily and help customers avoid costly repairs through scheduled maintenance, oil servicing, and turbo system diagnostics. We use only Castrol-approved oils and OEM filters for long-term reliability.

Watch: Blocked Oil Pick-Up Caused by Lack of Servicing – Real Example from MB Motors Rugeley

This video shows the severe effects of neglected vehicle servicing. At MB Motors Rugeley, we removed a completely blocked oil pick-up system caused by sludge buildup due to missed oil changes and poor service history. A blockage like this can result in engine oil starvation, leading to major internal engine damage and expensive repairs.

Regular oil changes and servicing are critical to engine health and long-term performance. We use Castrol-approved oils and OEM parts to ensure reliability for every make and model.
