Four Reasons to Choose a Specialist for Your Honda Mandurah Service

With the temptation to save a few dollars on the cost of maintaining their vehicle, many owners have been choosing to use a generic garage for their annual maintenance rather than going to a Honda service centre. However, although you may be able to save a few dollars, there are a number of reasons why it is a better idea to ensure that your Honda is in the care of a specialist.

Depth of Knowledge:

Although a Honda Mandurah service may appear simple, your Honda is a complex piece of engineering. Therefore, it is important that it is under the care of a professional with the depth of knowledge you would find at a Honda service centre. Honda technicians have the experience and knowledge needed to efficiently diagnose and correct any problems which may be developing. Since an annual service is a great time to check the overall performance of your vehicle, you need to ensure that it is in the hands of someone who knows if and when a problem is likely to develop.

Use of the Latest Honda Technology:

Although generic garages and service centres may not appear to be short of tools, it is unlikely that they will have the latest Honda diagnosis technology. This type of equipment tends to be costly and is, therefore, prohibitive for garage owners who may only see a few Honda models each month. However, the main focus of a Honda service centre is the maintenance of Honda vehicles, so they are always sure to have the latest tools and technology.

Certification:

Another important consideration is whether your mechanic is certified to work on a Honda vehicle. Honda trained technicians are certified that they have the skill and knowledge to service and repair a vehicle to the exacting standards of the Honda manufacturing facilities. This certification is an important consideration, especially if your vehicle is still under manufacturer warranty. However, it is also an important aspect of protecting the resale value of your vehicle, since potential buyers will view a full Honda service centre maintenance record more favourably.

Genuine Replacement Parts:

Another important reason to choose a specialist for your Honda service is that an authorised service centre will always use genuine Honda replacement parts. In fact, this is usually the reason why a generic service is slightly cheaper, since the mechanic is likely to be using generic parts. Genuine replacement parts have a longer lifespan and more comprehensive warranty, since they are made to exact manufacturer standards with high quality materials. You may regret saving a few dollars if you agree to use generic replacement parts and you need to take your vehicle in for repair before the standard lifespan has elapsed.
