What’s covered in a Changan service at Sandicliffe Lincoln?
Service content varies depending on your Changan model, mileage, engine type (petrol, hybrid, EV), and whether it’s an interim, full, or major service. However, you can generally expect:
Engine oil and oil filter change using the correct grade oil and official filter
Air filter and cabin (pollen) filter inspection or replacement to maintain performance and air quality
Full brake inspection, including pads, discs, fluid levels, wear checks, and leak detection
Brake fluid replacement (usually every two years or per service schedule)
Coolant system checks, including hoses, levels, and antifreeze condition
Transmission and gearbox checks, including fluid condition and levels where applicable
For AWD or 4WD models: differential and transfer case inspections
Full steering and suspension assessment, checking for wear and correct alignment
Tyre inspection, pressure checks, and wheel condition assessment (including spare tyre where relevant)
Battery health checks for internal combustion models and high-voltage system diagnostics on EVs
Electronic diagnostics, including fault code scanning, software updates, and sensor checks
Lighting, wipers, mirrors, door locks, and seatbelt function checks for safety compliance
A road test to assess handling, braking, performance, and any warning lights
Resetting of service indicators (if your vehicle is fitted with digital reminders)
What’s not included?
While our standard Changan service covers all scheduled maintenance tasks, there are a few things that are either excluded or considered additional:
Wear-and-tear items like spark plugs, tyres, or wiper blades may only be replaced if due or at your request
Major component replacements (e.g. timing belts, water pumps) are not part of regular servicing unless specifically scheduled
Accident repairs, cosmetic fixes, or non-standard modifications are outside the scope of routine servicing
Air conditioning re-gas or servicing may be charged separately unless included in your plan
Rest assured, we’ll always discuss any extra work with you before proceeding, and only use genuine Changan parts or manufacturer-approved alternatives to protect your vehicle’s warranty.
