Representative photoBattery boost for a BMW 228
Battery boost for the BMW 228: CarmaCars does not do this work itself. Request it and we arrange it with a trusted shop or connect you with one, and we can deliver a rental car to you while yours is in.
A rental while yours is in the shop
CarmaCars does not do this work; you keep driving while the shop has your car. We deliver a rental to you, by the day, at our usual rates.

The BMW 228: Battery boost
The BMW 228 and battery service: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Your car, your notes
If you have the service history of your 228, have it ready for the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed.
Our part and the shop's part
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
Keep moving meanwhile
Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies.
Small things that help
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter.
When you know your dates
Start with the car, the job and your location.
Request battery boost
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
