Ford Service

What's included in a Ford service?

At Lube Mobile, our mobile mechanics will perform warranty Ford services that include everything as set out by your manufacturer's specification and noted in your vehicle's logbook. Manufacturers have guidelines that need to be followed for their warranty to remain valid, and as an accredited provider, Lube Mobile will adhere to these guidelines.

For any Ford no longer under warranty a standard service should be completed at least once per year. This yearly Ford service will include:

• Change of engine oil and filter

• An under the bonnet fluid check and top-up

• An examination of the charging and ignition systems

• A brake and safety systems check 

For your convenience, Lube Mobile have have vans operating all over Australia. In fact, because our mobile mechanics provide mobile service and repairs all over Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Darwin and many other locations, you can always consider us your 'mobile mechanic near me.'

How often should I get an oil change for my Ford car?

Looking up ‘How often to service Ford vehicles’? Ford Motor Company recommends changing your oil every 12,000 kilometres if your Ford model is from 2008 or later. Oil changes are recommended every 8,000 kilometres if your vehicle was built before 2007. The recommended Ford maintenance changes are based on normal driving conditions.

You may find the Intelligent Oil Life Monitor (IOLM) in the instrument cluster of Ford models from 2011 and later. ‘Change Engine Oil Soon’ or ‘Oil Change Required’ alerts will appear on the monitor. To accurately display your oil life, this system needs to be reset every time the oil is changed.

When should I consider getting a wheel alignment for my Ford?

Curious about alignment and suspension-related frequencies? You should book a Ford car service for a wheel alignment at about the 48,000-kilometre mark or whenever you buy new tyres. Having your tyres aligned properly ensures that your vehicle drives straight and handles smoothly. You can also improve tyre life, tyre performance, and gas mileage with properly aligned tyres.

Is using aftermarket parts for my Ford’s repairs okay?

Some Ford owners may think about using aftermarket parts to modify their cars for cosmetic or performance purposes rather than repairs. However, we recommend using caution when considering aftermarket parts for your auto body changes.

The best option is to use Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts. Despite the fact that you may get the part for less, is it worth the risk to your vehicle’s safety and integrity? OEMs go to great lengths to ensure quality, but many aftermarket manufacturers may not.

Signs that your Ford requires servicing

One sign you need to come in for an affordable Ford car service is when your brakes feel off or are making more noise than usual. Your Ford’s brakes should stop you quietly and effectively without you having to push the pedal all the way down.

You may also notice rough or abrupt shifting when you accelerate or decelerate when there’s a problem. It might even be difficult for your Ford to shift into a higher gear.

Fuel efficiency is another indicator. Even though you drive the same distance, are you making more trips to the gas station? It is possible for poor gas mileage to be caused by a sticking brake pad, underinflated tires, or other issues that require a Ford tune-up.

Optimum Ford performance

When you maintain your vehicle regularly with Ford car service from certified Ford mechanics, you are less likely to experience unforeseen breakdowns. An inspection can ensure that your vehicle’s fluid levels, systems, and components are in good working order.

Identifying problems early – via an electrical system check, engine diagnostic services, or other ways – will prevent them from causing a breakdown, leaving you stranded on the road. It also prevents you from incurring a major service cost down the line.
