About the Ranger
The Ford Ranger (4×4 ute) is a sensible, well-built 4×4 ute that’s cheap to keep healthy — provided the servicing is done properly and on schedule.
We look after the Ranger with the right parts, the correct oil and proper diagnostics — the same standard as the dealer, usually at a lower price.
Common Ranger service points
The things we keep an eye on with the Ranger: regular oil and filter services, the diesel engine and DPF/EGR care, the transmission and 4×4 driveline fluids, brakes and suspension under load, and the cooling system. As a working 4×4 the Ranger benefits from on-time servicing, especially if you tow or work it hard.
We’ll show you what your Ranger actually needs, what can wait, and quote it in writing first — no surprises.
Servicing your Ranger & keeping the warranty
