The 1986 BMW 528e: Battery boost
Battery boost for the 1986 BMW 528e: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Your 528e and the shop
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the 528e.
From request to repair
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Talking to the shop
Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon.
Small things that help
Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
Talk to a person
Need a rental too? Add it to the same request.
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.
