Lexus Cars And Automotive Reviews

A good AMG Mercedes dealer will be able to provide AMG Mercedes Benz parts which are guaranteed through the manufacturer to work properly. You will also be able to rely on your Mercedes dealer to install the parts since the mechanics who work with Mercedes Benz parts are trained and experienced in working on Mercedes Benz cars.

If you do not currently have a local Mercedes Benz dealer then you can order your parts from a local auto parts shop and either install them yourself or hire a local mechanic. If your safety depends on the part being installed correctly you will want to be sure to hire someone who you personally trust and depend upon. It’s true that you do not always have to buy Mercedes Benz parts for Mercedes Benz cars, sometimes another brand e.g. Bosch, will do just as well.

You can find a wide variety of Mercedes Benz parts online often for a fraction of the cost you will pay at a dealership. You should be careful to ensure that the parts which you order are the actual parts which you require since there may not be a return policy available for any online orders. This may be especially true if you have ordered from a breakers yard. But it does seem to be that these days, even they are offering a 30 day returns policy.

Occasionally some AMG Mercedes Benz parts will need to be ordered or installed regularly as a part of the normal upkeep and maintenance associated with your car. If you have to order your Mercedes Benz parts online you may wish to order a couple of extra oil filters or whatever you normally would require during the completion of your regularly scheduled tune ups.

Ordering multiple parts at one time will ultimately save you both time and money since you won’t have to place an order every time your car requires a tune up or oil change. This is a great way to save money on shipping costs for your AMG Mercedes Benz parts. For example, some people service their cars every six months, others every twelve months. If you choose every six months, then you know you will need an oil an filter change every six months, so you can buy them in bulk.

If you require a specific type of AMG Mercedes Benz parts such as a engine or a transmission you may find that it is easier to go through your dealer to find the right Mercedes Benz part.

How to save money on your next Lexus service

Lexus servicing is now much cheaper, for those in the know.

Thanks to European legislation, you no longer have to be tied to high Lexus service costs, dictated by your local dealer.

In October 2003 new European legislation affecting the motor industry came into force called “Block Exemption Regulation” 14002002 (BER), and this now means that you can book your next Lexus car service online and save up to 50% on what you might pay at your local Lexus dealer.

Before the law changed it was difficult to have new cars within their warranty period serviced outside a franchised dealer. If you wanted to shop around for the best prices on Lexus servicing, your hands were tied.

The change in the law now gives every car owner the freedom to service their car away from the main dealers, and still have their warranty protected.

Thousands of Lexus car owners have now taken advantage of their new right and reduced their Lexus serving costs, whilst benefiting from the convenience of booking with national car service providers such as Service A Car.

Service A Car is a leading online car servicing network that prides itself on the quality of its Lexus servicing, their customer service and transparent pricing. Because the company is not tied to any particular car manufacturer, they are able to service any make of vehicle and compete freely in the market, on a like-for-like.

Every vehicle is rigorously serviced according to the manufacturer’s servicing schedule, using genuine recommended parts fitted by qualified technicians. This means that every Lexus car service fulfils the warranty criteria and there is no compromise on the servicing standards of a main dealer.

Companies like Service A Car, who fulfil the warranty criteria when servicing your Lexus, are able to maintain your service book, just as main dealer can – thereby protecting your warranty and helping you to maximise the resale value of your Lexus car.

Of course, booking direct with a national car servicing network has its own advantages:
·         You no longer have to do all the running around. Service A Car collects your Lexus in the morning and delivers it back that afternoon, free of charge
·         You pay a fixed Lexus service price, which can be up to 50% below the price at the Lexus servicing desk of your local dealer
·         No additional work is carried out without your agreement, which means no nasty surprises when it comes to paying the bill
·         Trained Customer Advisers are on hand throughout the day to keep you informed of progress, and report back on problems you asked to be investigated as part of your Lexus service e.g. knocks and rattles
·         Your Lexus service includes a free wash and vacuum clean
·         You simply pay with your credit or debit card and your car is delivered back to your home or work address.

Our advice for saving money on Lexus car servicing is to contact a national car servicing network, who is not tied to any one particular car manufacturer, like Service A Car.

So, before you book your next Lexus service, why not ask your local dealer to tell you the cost of the service (plus parts, oil and any extras) and then compare it with a fixed price quote from a national servicing network, like Service A Car?

Happy motoring,
Howard.
