Stop paying for what your manual says.

MotorThink keeps your car's own factory service chart, for its exact model and trim, and checks it against what you have actually had done. You see what is due, to the kilometre, and what is an upsell.

No account. Your car's next services and its known problems.

Your manual's chart, kept up to date.

Every owner's manual prints a service chart. MotorThink reads it for your exact car, marks off what you've had done, and puts what is due in order of urgency, the most urgent set largest. Example: a 2019 Toyota Corolla Hybrid at 96,400 km.

A light came on. Now what?

MotorThink takes you from "something's wrong" to "here's how to fix it", for your exact car. Four steps, all in the app.

The faults your car is known for.

Problems recorded for your exact generation and engine, safety-critical first, each with its symptoms, urgency and a cost band. Say "not on my car" and it leaves your list.

Not just what is wrong. What to do.

A repair guide for that fault on your engine: difficulty, a real time estimate, parts with their specs, tools and safety warnings. Ask follow-up questions, and it tells you plainly when it's a garage job.

ModerateAbout 2h 30mHot exhaust

Confirm it is the converter. Check fuel trims and the downstream sensor first.

Check for leaks upstream. An exhaust leak sets the same code.

Add the car once. We read the manual.

Add your vehicle
Pick the make, model, generation and trim. That is all MotorThink needs to find the right chart.
Get the factory chart
The maker's own intervals for your exact trim and market: every item, at the mileage and the time the manufacturer set. Not a generic 10,000 km checklist.
Know what is due
Photograph your receipts. MotorThink ticks them off the chart, works out what is due from your own mileage, and reminds you before it falls due.

The rest of the job, handled.

Snap the receipt. The chart ticks itself.

Photograph any garage bill. MotorThink reads the items, the odometer and the date, and learns your garage's shorthand. Bought the car used? A two-minute history scan rebuilds what was probably done.

Advice, without the upsell.

Garages get paid to sell services. Your manual has nothing to sell. Here is a typical bill held against the chart.

A typical garage bill, checked against the manual · example
On the bill	Garage says	Manual says
Engine oil & filter	Every 5,000 km	Every 10,000 km
Engine flush	Every service	Not on the chart
Fuel injector cleaning	Every 20,000 km	Not on the chart
Brake fluid	Not mentioned	Due: every 40,000 km
