Why are oil changes so expensive in Maserati?

As a Maserati owner, ensuring that your car is regularly serviced means that your vehicle will continue to work in top condition. 

Regular service not only replaces worn parts like filters and oil changes. 

Maserati is, without a doubt, a luxurious European speed machine. That is not to say that its ownership costs will break your bank without your permission. 

You are somehow in charge of removing your roadster’s yearly maintenance from your spreadsheet. 

I mean to say that if you keep up with your Maserati’s maintenance schedule, you will never have frequent breakdowns and your overall maintenance cost will be lower, whereas otherwise your intermediary will fail on a regular basis, draining your notecase. 

Instead of calculating the overall cost of car aftercare/Upkeep costs, you should service your convertible at the recommended intervals to extend the life of your adorable Maserati and keep its yearly aftercare expenses within your budget.

It also provides your mechanic with an opportunity to check that everything else is still in top working order including things like your brakes, steering, etc.

During regular service, your mechanic will note any other issues they identify and let you know what they are too. 

They’ll  provide a quote on the spot for any additional work, so you know what to expect.

I think Maintenance is not that high considering that a Maserati is such an exclusive and exotic automobile with a pedigree, a very sexy gorgeous design and an engine that involves another exceptional brand (Ferrari).

My car was under warranty but the maintenance was about $4,000 per year (complete annual inspection done by an authorized dealer + 4 new tires). 

Spending $4,000 annually for a car that retails for $140,000 new is not that high.

I would say, yes, Maserati ownership is very expensive in terms of real dollars.It may is not that far off compared to other car brands that produce similar cars (BMW, MBZ, Porsche). Of course, the cost of ownership is not limited to Servicing & Oil Changes and also includes depreciation, maintenance, and consumables.

You can book online now for new vehicle servicing such as Maserati servicing or Skoda, Lancia and Mitsubishi servicing.

The mechanics are fully able to carry out your regular logbook service without affecting the validity of your current warranty.

A dealer cannot specify which service provider you, the car’s owner, must use so if you prefer to opt for a local and convenient mobile mechanic rather than another service provider then you can do so without penalty.

As per the Trade Practices Act, it is the buyers’ right to choose any qualified service provider to carry out standard logbook service. 

Any of the work we complete on a vehicle including fuel pump, starter motor and battery as well as standard servicing, comes with a standard 12 month or 20,000 km warranty. 

When you choose the outside dealership mechanics to maintain your regular logbook servicing needs, you are not only covered by your original warranty but you are now also covered by the mechanics as well.

Who is looking after your car’s tyres?  

There are many local mechanics that offer a fully mobile tyre service which you can book online for anything from tyre repair and replacement to rebalancing and rotation.

Just like with any of other mechanical services, you can comfortably sit back and relax at your specified location including your place of work, your home or even on your holidays, while all of your tyres are maintained and looked after to spec, on-site and on time.
