What is a car maintenance log?
A car maintenance log is a running record of every service, repair, and inspection performed on a vehicle — including the date, mileage, cost, and what was done. A complete vehicle maintenance log covers oil changes, tire rotations, brake jobs, fluid flushes, and any repairs or modifications. It helps car owners track service history, prove maintenance to buyers, and stay ahead of future service needs.
Why it matters
The oil change receipt is in the glove box. The brake job is somewhere in your email. The timing belt replacement — you think it was done, but you're not sure. When you go to sell the car, you have nothing to show. When a mechanic asks for history, you have to guess.
A car maintenance log fixes that. It's a running record of everything that's been done to a vehicle — services, repairs, mods, inspections — with dates, mileage, and costs. The kind of documentation that protects your investment, helps your mechanic, and adds real value when you sell.
Manila is that log. Free to start, works on any device, and built for anyone who owns a car — not just gearheads.
What to track
01
Sign up at app.mymanilafolder.com. No credit card, no trial period. Takes under a minute.
02
Enter your car's year, make, and model. Add as many vehicles as you own — daily drivers, project cars, classics, trucks, everything gets its own project.
03
Create a note for any service. Add the date, mileage, cost, and what was done. Scan a receipt directly into the note if you have one — Manila reads it and fills in the details automatically.
04
Add a reminder for your next oil change, tire rotation, or any recurring service. Manila emails you when it's due so nothing slips.
05
Generate a shareable link for your car's complete service record. Send it to a mechanic before a visit, or include it in a listing when you sell. No account required to view it.
A car maintenance log is a running record of every service, repair, and inspection performed on a vehicle — with dates, mileage, costs, and what was done. It works as an oil change log, a repair history, and a vehicle service record all in one place. The more complete your log, the more useful it becomes when you're diagnosing a problem, taking your car to a mechanic, or selling it to a buyer who wants to see the history.
Manila is a free vehicle maintenance tracker that works on iPhone, Android, and desktop — without needing an app store download. You can log oil changes, repairs, mileage, and costs; scan receipts directly into a service record; set reminders for upcoming service; and share a shareable car service history with a mechanic or buyer. It covers every vehicle you own from one account.
At minimum: oil changes, tire rotations, brake jobs, and any repairs — with the date, mileage, and cost. More complete logs include fluid flushes, filter replacements, modifications, inspections, and scanned receipts from the shop. The more you log, the more useful your history becomes when you sell or when a mechanic needs context.
