Free template + free digital logbook

Car maintenance log template

Use the layout below as a printable service log, or let Modyule keep the same record for you — with reminders, receipt photos and a PDF export when it's time to sell.

Free forever for one car. No card required.

The eight columns every maintenance log needs

Copy these headings into a spreadsheet or a notebook page and you have a complete paper template. Modyule uses the same fields, so nothing is lost if you switch later.

Column 1
Date
When the work was done
Column 2
Odometer
km or miles at service
Column 3
Service item
Oil change, brakes, tyres…
Column 4
Parts / fluids
Brand, spec, part number
Column 5
Cost
Parts + labour
Column 6
Workshop / DIY
Who did the work
Column 7
Next due
Date or odometer target
Column 8
Notes
Anything the next owner should know
Printing it? Give each service its own row, keep the odometer column to the left of the service description, and staple receipts to the back of the page in date order — that's the format buyers and workshops read fastest.

Printable template vs digital logbook

A paper template works. It just can't remind you, back itself up, or add up what the car has cost you.

What a digital log does that a template can't

Reminders before it's due

Set intervals by date or odometer for oil, tyres, brakes, inspections and registration. Modyule tells you before the service is overdue, not after.

Receipts attached to entries

Photograph the invoice at the counter and it lives on that service entry — no shoebox, no faded thermal paper.

PDF logbook at resale

Export the whole history — dates, odometer, work done, costs and receipts — as one PDF for the buyer, insurer or warranty claim.
