Warranty protection
You have the right to choose where you service your Land Rover without losing your standard new car warranty. Manufacturers cannot void your warranty simply because you choose independent servicing. However, it’s important to review the terms of any extended warranties you’ve purchased, as additional conditions may apply.
Flexible payment options
Need to head off quickly after your service? Pay before pickup and be on your way without delay. We also offer flexible payment solutions, including Afterpay and MoneyMe, so your vehicle gets the attention it needs when it needs it — hassle-free.

Absolutely. As Land Rovers have evolved to provide exceptional luxury while handling rugged terrain, their complex suspension systems have introduced some common issues. Instead of relying on traditional materials like metal or plastic to absorb shock, Land Rovers use sophisticated air suspension systems, including flexible rubber bellows (air springs), air struts, and height sensors. While this design offers impressive comfort, the complexity can lead to air suspension failure over time. Our skilled Land Rover repair mechanics are equipped to diagnose and repair these issues with precision.
My Land Rover is sagging on one side — what’s wrong?
If your Land Rover is sagging on one side, it’s likely due to a leak in one of the air struts or air lines within the suspension system. Left unattended, this leak places extra strain on the air compressor, which has to work overtime to compensate. This issue needs prompt attention to avoid further damage. Bring your vehicle to Cox Auto, where our experienced repairers can inspect, diagnose, and perform the necessary replacement to fix your Land Rover’s suspension issues and restore performance.
Can I get my Land Rover serviced anywhere?
Yes, you can! Under Australian Consumer Law, you have the freedom to choose where you service your Land Rover without compromising your warranty. At Cox Auto, we offer a trusted alternative to dealerships, providing premium Land Rover service and repairs using genuine Land Rover parts. Our expertise, advanced diagnostic tools, and commitment to transparent pricing make us a reliable choice for keeping your vehicle in peak condition.
How often should I service my Land Rover?
For most Land Rover models, servicing is recommended approximately every 15,000 kilometres or once a year. However, your specific model and driving habits can influence this schedule. Regular servicing, including essential maintenance like engine oil changes, is key to preserving your vehicle’s performance and longevity. Always refer to your service manual for manufacturer recommendations, or consult with our team for personalised advice.
What factors affect the cost of a Land Rover service in Australia?
The cost of servicing your Land Rover can vary based on factors such as the type of service, model-specific requirements, and any additional work needed. Whether it’s a routine inspection, clutch replacement, roadworthy certification, or specialised repairs, we provide detailed quotes tailored to your vehicle’s needs. Our commitment to transparency means you’ll receive a clear breakdown of costs without hidden fees. Contact us to discuss your service requirements.
How long does a Land Rover service take in Australia?
Service duration depends on the type of work required. A comprehensive logbook service for a Land Rover could take 2 to 4 hours. Complex body and internal fixes, the kind you might get from offroading, could take longer to diagnose and repair. But, with our Land Rover mechanics and auto electricians, there’s no better garage for panel beating or smash repairs in Melbourne. When you book with us, we’ll provide a clear timeframe and keep you informed if any unexpected delays arise.
What about servicing for specialty or limited edition Land Rover models?
