Logbook Service in Artarmon — Protect Your Warranty, Your Way

Your car’s logbook service isn’t just a box to tick — it’s what keeps your warranty valid, your engine healthy, and your car running at its best. At Brumby Motors in Artarmon, we perform logbook servicing strictly to manufacturer specifications using genuine OEM parts. Whether your car is under new car warranty or you simply want it maintained the right way, we’re the trusted local alternative to the dealership.

What Is a Logbook Service?

A logbook service is a scheduled maintenance service based on your vehicle manufacturer’s requirements — typically every 10,000–15,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first. Each service is recorded in your car’s logbook (digital or paper) to maintain a full service history. This history protects your warranty, improves your car’s resale value, and helps prevent unexpected breakdowns.

Will Logbook Servicing Here Affect My Warranty?

No — and this is a common concern we hear often. Under Australian Consumer Law, you are legally entitled to have your vehicle serviced at any qualified workshop without losing your manufacturer warranty. The law simply requires that the work be carried out to the manufacturer’s specifications using appropriate parts. At Brumby Motors, we meet both requirements. We use genuine OEM parts and follow the exact service intervals set by your car’s manufacturer.

Logbook Servicing for European and Asian Cars

Our logbook service experience covers a wide range of makes and models, including BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, Porsche, Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Subaru and more. Each manufacturer has different specifications — different oils, different intervals, different inspection checklists. We know the differences and we service accordingly.

A Dealership-Level Service Without Dealership Pricing

Many of our customers come to us when their free dealer servicing period ends and they discover what the dealership actually charges. Our logbook service delivers the same quality work and the same quality parts — at a price that reflects what you should actually be paying. No upsells, no unnecessary add-ons, no inflated labour rates.
