Ford servicing, from Ranger diesels to the daily run

We do not publish a fixed price because a Ford service is not one fixed job. The cost depends on the model and engine, whether it is a basic or full logbook service, the parts and fluids your vehicle is due, and anything we find that needs attention. Call us on (07) 847 3339 with your model and we will give you a clear quote.

A full service is worth what it actually covers. A genuine full service includes oil and filters, a full inspection, brakes, fluids, and a road test, not just an oil change. We quote each Ford specifically by model and engine, with no surprises added later. Call (07) 847 3339 and we will price your full service up front.

It varies by vehicle, engine and what the service includes, so any single figure online is a rough guide at best. A diesel Ranger has different parts and fluids to a petrol Focus, and a service due for a cambelt costs more than a routine one. We quote your Ford directly. Call (07) 847 3339 for a firm price.

No. You can have your Ford serviced at any qualified workshop, not just a Ford dealer, and your manufacturer warranty stays intact under New Zealand consumer law as long as the correct parts, fluids and logbook procedures are used. We are an MTA-aligned workshop, we service to Ford schedules, and we record every service properly.

Every 10,000 km or 12 months for a normally used Ranger, whichever comes first. If yours tows heavy, does mostly short town trips, or works on farm or construction sites, we recommend servicing more often. Short-trip use is the main reason a Ranger DPF blocks early, so regular oil changes protect both the filter and the injectors.

Yes. We are authorised Bosch and Delphi agents with a dedicated fuel injection test room and calibrated test benches. We diagnose injector and high-pressure pump faults with manufacturer-level scan tools, log live rail pressure on a road test, then bench test the components so the fix is confirmed before anything goes back in. Where a part needs rebuilding it goes to our specialist partners, or we fit a remanufactured unit.

Yes. We connect a proper scan tool, read why the regeneration failed, and run a forced regeneration in the workshop. If the filter is too far gone for a regen, we clean or replace it. We also check the cause, such as a sticking EGR valve or short-trip use, so it does not block again straight away.

Yes. We service the Coyote V8, the EcoBoost four-cylinder, and the older 4.6 and 5.0 V8 Mustangs. That covers scheduled servicing, diagnostics, brakes, cooling and honest advice on any performance work you are considering.

For diesel Rangers in our workshop it is DPF blockages, usually from short-trip driving, followed by injector wear on higher-mileage 3.2L engines and wastegate faults on the 2.0L bi-turbo. None of these mean the engine is finished. Caught early they are straightforward repairs.

A standard logbook service is usually a few hours, so most customers drop the Ranger off in the morning and collect it the same day. Diesel injection diagnostics, a forced DPF regeneration, or turbo work add more time, and we give you a realistic timeline once we have looked at the vehicle.

Yes. The Falcon Barra six-cylinder and the Territory, both petrol and diesel, are still common on Waikato roads and we service them regularly. We have the parts contacts and the experience to keep them running well, and we will be upfront if a particular part is harder to source.

Yes. We carry out WOF inspections on Ford cars and light commercials. If something needs attention to pass, we can usually repair it the same visit, and we flag anything that will need work soon so you are not caught out at the next check.
