Frequently Asked Questions
How often should a 4x4 be serviced?
A 4x4 vehicle should typically be serviced every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometres or every 6 to 12 months—whichever comes first. However, if the vehicle is regularly used off-road, for towing, or in extreme weather conditions, more frequent servicing is recommended. Harsh driving environments can accelerate wear on components like suspension, driveline, and brakes. Following the manufacturer’s logbook schedule and having the vehicle checked after intensive off-road trips helps maintain performance and reliability, and can prevent expensive repairs down the track.
What maintenance does a 4WD need after off-roading?
After off-roading, it’s important to check for underbody damage, worn suspension components, contaminated fluids, and dirt or debris buildup in critical areas like the brakes, drivetrain, and air filters. Servicing may include re-greasing suspension and steering components, inspecting differential breathers, and checking wheel alignment and balance. Mud and water can also affect seals and cause corrosion if left uncleaned. A post-trip inspection ensures that your 4WD is safe, clean, and ready for the next journey.
Can any mechanic work on a 4x4 vehicle?
While many general mechanics can perform basic services, 4x4 vehicles often require specialist knowledge and tools—especially when it comes to suspension setups, driveline systems, and off-road modifications. Mechanics experienced in 4x4 servicing understand the extra demands placed on components and know how to inspect, maintain, or repair them properly. For the best results, it’s recommended to use a workshop with specific experience in four-wheel drives and access to advanced diagnostic equipment.
