Arranging the work for the Z4
For battery service on your 2004 BMW Z4, we arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Details the shop needs
If you have the service history of your Z4, have it ready for the shop. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. It uses the 2.5L 6-cylinder and rear-wheel drive.
What CarmaCars does here
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
A short checklist
Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Between shop visits
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Still deciding?
