Frequently Asked Questions on hybrid vehicle service

Do hybrid cars need a special service?

Yes, hybrid cars need a special service. They have both a petrol or diesel engine and an electric motor, so a service must cover both systems. Special equipment and trained mechanics are needed to properly work on these vehicles.

Do hybrid cars need to be serviced?

Yes, hybrid cars need a regular service just like petrol and diesel cars. Routine maintenance and checks help ensure that all parts of the car are in good condition. It can also prevent future issues and keep your car running smoothly.

How often should a hybrid be serviced?

Hybrid cars should be serviced every 12 months or every 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. Regular servicing helps keep your vehicle running smoothly for longer.

What are the signs your hybrid vehicle needs a service?

Signs your hybrid vehicle needs a service include unusual noises from the engine or motor, decreased fuel efficiency, warning lights on the dashboard, and reduced battery performance. Regular checks can catch these issues early.

Can I take my hybrid to any garage?

Not all garages have the right tools to service hybrid vehicles. It's best to take your hybrid to a garage with mechanics trained to work on hybrid cars and the right tools to handle both the engine and electric motor.

Can your mobile mechanics service hybrid vehicles?

Yes, we can! However, it’s important to note that our mobile mechanic services don’t include a health check or efficiency test on the hybrid battery.

Our RAC Mobile Mechanic full service includes a diagnostic check that picks up most faults. But if you want a battery health check or efficiency test completed, we’d recommend booking a hybrid car service with one of our local approved garages.
