The short answer

At Autobedrijf Willemsbrug in Rotterdam-IJsselmonde, your Jeep gets a minor or major service according to the manufacturer’s service schedule. If your Jeep is still under the manufacturer’s warranty, the warranty stays valid as long as the servicing follows the manufacturer’s schedule, even if you do not go to the dealer.

The price depends on the model, the engine and the mileage. Call +31 10 479 00 00 with your registration number and mileage, and we will tell you in advance what the service costs. You can also visit our workshop.

If you combine a major service with the APK (MOT), the inspection is free. You drop off your Jeep Monday to Friday between 8.00 and 8.30 am, or on Saturday at 9.00 am. If extra work is needed, we call you first.

Why have your Jeep serviced at Autobedrijf Willemsbrug?

We are an independent garage for all makes and an RDW-approved APK station. We service your Jeep to the manufacturer’s specifications, with parts and oil that suit your car.

Jeep is part of Stellantis. The Renegade and Compass share technology with Fiat, and the Avenger with Peugeot. We know that technology well. On a Wrangler or Grand Cherokee, we also look at the four-wheel drive system, the chassis and the suspension.

What servicing does the manufacturer specify for your Jeep?

Jeep sets a service interval in time and kilometres for each model and engine. The service indicator or the service book shows when the next service is due. A four-wheel drive Jeep has drivetrain parts with their own oil, as well as the engine. We change that oil according to the Jeep schedule.

On the 1.4 MultiAir, the right oil is particularly important. In this engine, a hydraulic unit controls the valves. The non-hybrid Avenger with the 1.2 petrol engine has a wet timing belt, which is a belt that runs in the engine oil. The right oil specification matters there too. We use the oil that Jeep specifies for your engine.

We use your registration number to look up which service your Jeep needs and, where possible, we read the service indicator. After the service, we reset the service reminder, if our equipment can do this.

Minor or major service for your Jeep?

Which service your car needs depends on the model, the engine, the age and the mileage. A minor and a major service usually include the following:

Part Minor service Major service
Engine oil and oil filter Change and replace Change and replace
Fluids Check and top up if needed Check, change the brake fluid if the schedule requires it
Brakes and tyres Check for wear Thorough check, including brake discs and brake pads
Filters Check Replace the air filter and cabin filter according to the schedule
Spark plugs (petrol) Not standard Replace at the manufacturer’s interval
Battery Check Test with a battery tester
Timing belt (if the engine has one) Not standard Check whether the belt is due for replacement at the set interval
APK Book separately Free if you combine it with a major service

Common Jeep models and what we check during a service

These Jeep models are the most common in the Netherlands, according to RDW open data. We can service all of these models.

Model Number in the Netherlands What we check during a service
Compass 9,864 On the 1.4 MultiAir, oil to the correct specification. On the 4xe, the brakes and the oil in the petrol engine. On 4×4 versions, the drivetrain oil.
Avenger 7,496 On the 1.2 petrol engine, oil to the specification for the wet timing belt. Electric: no engine oil, but brakes and tyres.
Renegade 6,361 On the 1.4 MultiAir, oil to the correct specification and the turbo. On 4×4 versions with an automatic, we check how the gearbox shifts.
Wrangler 3,368 Off-roader: engine and drivetrain oil, chassis, suspension and rust.
Grand Cherokee 2,079 Oil to the correct specification, the four-wheel drive system, brakes and, on a diesel, the DPF.
Cherokee 2,046 On the nine-speed automatic, how the gearbox shifts. On a diesel, the DPF.
CJ (classic) 753 Classic: oil, lubrication points, brakes and rust on the chassis and floor.
Patriot 692 Older car: oil, brakes, suspension and rust. On an automatic, the CVT.
Wagoneer 486 Often a classic or an import from the United States: oil, brakes, the four-wheel drive system and rust.

What do we check when servicing your Jeep?

At every service we follow the manufacturer’s schedule. For your Jeep, we also pay extra attention to these points:

  • 1.4 MultiAir in the Renegade and Compass: according to Carwiki, turbo problems and oil dilution were common with this engine in the Renegade. Oil dilution means fuel gets into the engine oil. Clean oil to the specified standard is important for this engine.
  • Nine-speed automatic: on a four-wheel drive Renegade or Compass, the automatic gearbox can shift roughly when the car switches between 4×4 and front-wheel drive. According to Carwiki, a software update can help.
  • Avenger with the 1.2 petrol engine: the non-hybrid version has a wet timing belt that runs in the engine oil. Oil to the right specification, changed on time, helps protect the belt. The e-Hybrid has a timing chain.
  • Four-wheel drive: on a Wrangler, Grand Cherokee or Cherokee with 4×4, the transfer case (which splits the power between the front and rear axles) and the differentials have their own oil. If you often tow a trailer or drive off-road, that oil may need replacing sooner.
  • Diesel with a DPF: on the MultiJet diesels in the Renegade and Compass, and on the diesels in the larger models, we check the diesel particulate filter (DPF). Lots of short trips are bad for the DPF.
  • Classic Jeeps: a CJ or an old Wagoneer has lubrication points on the suspension and steering. We grease them during the service. We also check the chassis for rust and look at the brake lines.

Servicing a Jeep 4xe or an electric Avenger

The Renegade 4xe, Compass 4xe and Wrangler 4xe are plug-in hybrids. The petrol engine gets oil and filters according to the schedule. The electric Avenger has no engine oil, spark plugs or timing belt. It still needs servicing, though: brakes, brake fluid, tyres, suspension and the cabin filter. Because these cars do most of their braking with the electric motor, the brake discs can rust.

Our mechanics hold a GMTO certificate (the Dutch qualification for working on high-voltage systems). This means they are trained to work safely on the high-voltage systems of hybrid and electric cars. Read more about servicing hybrid and electric cars (in Dutch).

How much does a service for your Jeep cost?

The price of a service differs from car to car. The model, the engine, the specified oil and the mileage determine what needs to be done and which parts are needed. That is why we do not give an amount on this page.

  • Price in advance: call +31 10 479 00 00 and give your registration number and mileage. We tell you straight away what the service costs, including VAT.
  • You can also drop in: visit our workshop at Boterdiep 11. We look at your Jeep and tell you on the spot what the service costs.
  • Extra work: if we find something during the service that was not part of the agreement, we call you first. We only do extra work with your approval.
  • Free APK: if you have the APK for your Jeep done together with a major service, you pay nothing for the inspection.

Does the manufacturer’s warranty on your Jeep stay valid?

Yes. Having your car serviced at an independent garage does not void your manufacturer’s warranty, as long as the servicing follows the manufacturer’s schedule and uses suitable parts and oil. This follows from the European rules for the motor industry. Extra warranties or mobility services from the brand may be linked to servicing at a dealer. We record the service in our system and, if you have a service book, in that too. You receive an invoice listing all the work. Keep it in a safe place.

Frequently asked questions about servicing your Jeep

No need to click: all the answers below are already open for you.

My automatic Renegade shifts roughly. What could be causing it?

Do the transfer case and differentials on my Jeep also get new oil?

Yes. This is done according to the Jeep schedule. On a four-wheel drive Jeep, these parts have their own oil. We use your registration number to look up when it is due.

Do you also service classic Jeeps?

Yes. On a CJ or an old Wagoneer, we grease the lubrication points and pay extra attention to rust, brake lines and leaks.
