INTRO
This is a serious truck, so the service plan should match how you use it. We keep it practical, cost-effective and transparent. The key for Autogroup International is to use our 30+ years of experience to provide honest advice and sensible vehicle service costs – that are always transparent. A key benefit of our experience is this significantly reduces ‘surprise costs’ during a service because we truly understand a righ than drive converted American pickup truck in Australia.

WHAT IS INCLUDED
Service begins with a scan and visual checks. Oils and filters are replaced to schedule. We check brakes, suspension, steering, driveline, mounts and tyres, then rotate, align and road-test. We also complete a free 160-point safety check that reviews brakes, suspension, steering, right hand drive conversion integrity and provides an OEM diagnostics report.
COST DRIVERS
Engine size, fluids, filters and usage patterns influence price. Towing and heat push fluids harder, so we may recommend earlier transmission or differential services.
ADAS AND ACCESSORIES
Bar work, lifts and wheels can affect alignment and sensors. We calibrate and validate so lane and parking aids behave as intended.
