FULL DEFENDER SERVICE
Our Defenders are serviced by fully qualified Land Rover Defender skilled mechanics. Your Defender is in safe hands with us.
Our highly skilled Land Rover trained technicians at Steve Parkers Service & Repairs Ltd will service your Land Rover Defender using the approved Land Rover schedules and approved genuine or original equipment parts to protect your 3 year manufacturer’s warranty. Defender Td5, 2.4 Puma & 2.2Tdci, We have special expertise in Land Rover Defender Servicing having been our passion long before the company was founded in 1982. Your Land Rover Defender will be serviced as per a normal Land Rover Dealers guidelines, however you will save up to 40% with us being an independent Defender Servicing Specialist.
We also follow the Good Garage Scheme service sheets, alongside the Land Rover Defender Schedules and use Forte fuel cleaners and forte motor flush. Service books can be stamped as we are a Vat registered garage, this is as per block exemption rules brought in 2003 ( that means you don’t have to use a main dealer).
For older vehicles we have our own service schedules which are more suited to older vehicle requirements.
Every service schedule has its lubrication points and a full list and report of the Land Rover Defender’s general condition is carried out as part of the service. We then advise the customer if any further work required now or report any work that will want doing at a later date. This we feel helps customers look after their vehicle and budget for work later. We recommend that any small jobs are carried out as they come along so that a big bill isn’t accrued later.
We also supply a hire car upon request for only £17.35 inc VAT per day.
Our aim is to look after our customer’s Defender so that they have trouble free motoring between servicing.
Brake fluid changes are required every 3 years and are priced seperately @ £35.63 inc vat

We generally use genuine land rover parts or quality non genuine parts & oem parts where available for repairing the vehicles. We use Lockheed , TRW or replacement brake parts, Genuine Land Rover brake parts can be used upon request.
Discovery 3, Discovery 4 & Range Rover L322, & Range Rover Sport suffer from automatic gearbox problems & degradation in oil which can lead to judder, noise & deterioration in gear change quality. ZF, the gearbox manufacturer recommends a gearbox oil & filter change every 50 000 to 75 000 miles on all 5, 6 & 8 speed transmission to ensure optimum performance, with the vehicle as standard this is a big job as this entails jacking the engine up, unbolting mounts & removing the exhaust. However now there is an automatic gearbox sump conversion kit available to enable the gearbox oil & filter to be changed quicker & easier. The extra advantage that it is made in metal instead of plastic as per the Genuine Land Rover one. Please ring or email for prices and more information, Parts only are available too. As soon as any faults are experienced it is better to carry out this oil change etc to save the gearbox form total failure which is costly
