The 1997 Lexus ES: Battery boost
For battery service on the 1997 Lexus ES, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Before the shop sees your ES
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your ES, have it ready for the shop. Power comes from the 3.0L 6-cylinder, driving through a 4-speed automatic.
What CarmaCars does here
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A rental while you wait
Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
A short checklist
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Between shop visits
Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
Want a price?
Send a request: the car, the problem and when suits you.
