    The 4WD Service Centre Gold Coast fourbie drivers trust

    So how do you know your 4WD might need a service? Here are three signs you need to book in at our Gold Coast 4WD centre:

    1. It’s been 6 months since your last service.

    2. You’ve driven 10,000km or more since your last service.

    3. Something just doesn’t feel right with your 4WD (sounds, smells, steering, suspension…).

    Keeping up to date with your fourbie maintenance not only keeps your vehicle in good shape, it also helps maintain its value and can detect any potential problems before they happen.

    How much does a 4WD service on the Gold Coast cost?

    The average cost of a 4WD service on the Gold Coast is around $350. At mycar, we offer fixed-price servicing, with price depending on the make and model of your vehicle, whether you’re after a logbook or basic service, and its condition. Leaving too much time in between services can mean more work needs to be done, making your service cost more than it would have at the 6-month (or 10,000km) mark.

    At mycar, we know it can be stressful booking in a service, let alone one you haven’t prepared for. This is why we provide upfront pricing (as well as Zip and Afterpay), so you can plan your budget to always keep you and your family safe on the road.
