Arranging the work for the GS
Battery boost for the 1995 Lexus GS: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Before the shop sees your GS
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The engine is the 3.0L 6-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic.
How the arrangement works
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. We collect the rental when your car is back. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Small things that help
Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
Make a request
Start with a short request; a person replies within one business day.
