MG3 Service Schedule & Costs
The current MG3 is serviced every 15,000 km or 12 months in Australia — with capped prices from $249 a visit — and every 15,000 miles or 12 months in the UK. Same number, different unit: 15,000 miles is about 24,100 km, so a UK-schedule car runs roughly 60% further between services. Check which market’s schedule any advice assumes before following it.
Australia — intervals and capped prices
Interval: every 15,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first. MG Australia’s published capped prices:
| Service | Due at | 1.5 CVT petrol | Hybrid+ |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 15,000 km / 12 mo | $249 | $249 |
| 2 | 30,000 km / 24 mo | $398 | $412 |
| 3 | 45,000 km / 36 mo | $249 | $414 |
| 4 | 60,000 km / 48 mo | $563 | $597 |
| 5 | 75,000 km / 60 mo | $368 | $249 |
Prices AUD inc. GST from MG Australia’s official Service Pricing Guide (retrieved 19 August 2026). Note the pattern difference: on the CVT the year-5 service is elevated ($368), while the Hybrid+ front-loads cost at years 2–4 and gets its cheapest service in year 5 — the two variants’ five-year totals end up just $94 apart ($1,827 vs $1,921, see running costs).
United Kingdom — intervals
Interval: every 15,000 miles or every year, whichever comes first — MG’s standard schedule for current models, as stated on MG Motor UK’s official servicing page. UK servicing uses dealer-set pricing or MG’s service plans rather than a national capped-price table.

What’s in each service?
The per-service item checklists are not published on either official page. We are obtaining the detailed schedule sheets and will publish the breakdown once verified — we don’t guess at maintenance items. The verified oil and fluid specs are on our MG3 oil & fluids page.
Older MG3 (2011–2024)?
The table above is MG Australia’s current guide and applies to the current hybrid-generation line-up. The long-lived older MG3 follows the owner documentation for its year — and since most of that fleet is now out of warranty, the known-problems checklist matters more than the capped-price table.
