MY 2006 Holden Astra is up for its first service, having done 15,000km, but I want to take it to my mechanic to save money. Will this affect my new car warranty?

NO, PROVIDING he follows the Holden service schedule and does everything by the book. If you have a problem in the future that you want to have fixed by Holden under the warranty, you need to be able to prove it has been serviced correctly, so there can be no suggestion the problem has been caused by the non-factory servicing. Make sure your mechanic is doing the work by the book and everything is being recorded.
