FREQUENCY OF SERVICING

Some 90% of households with at least one registered motor vehicle kept at home service their main motor vehicle at least once a year. Motor vehicles that travelled greater distances were serviced more often than vehicles that travelled less. Over four-fifths (83%) of main motor vehicles that had travelled 40,000 kms or more in the previous 12 months were serviced at least once every six months compared to just over half (54%) of those vehicles that had travelled less than 5,000 km (table 3.9).
