Arranging the work for the Z4
For battery service on the 2014 BMW Z4, a trusted shop does the work and CarmaCars arranges it, with a rental if you need one. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
About your Z4
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Z4. If you have the service history of your Z4, have it ready for the shop. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo; drive: rear-wheel drive.
The steps
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
Driving while yours is at the shop
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Good habits for your car
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow.
Getting a clear quote
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. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it.
Still deciding?
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
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.
