Crossword Genius

Catch up with the maintenance (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

overhaul

This clue is a double definition.

'catch up with' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'the maintenance' is the second definition.
(overhaul is a kind of maintenance)

(Other definitions for overhaul that I've seen before include "Examine and repair (machinery)" , "Examine and make any necessary repairs" , "Repair fully and renew" , "Inspect and repair" , "Pass - examination" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
