The 1986 Mazda 323: Battery boost

About your 323
If you have the service history of your 323, have it ready for the shop. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The 1.6L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
How the arrangement works
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A rental while you wait
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Getting a clear quote
Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Car care, briefly
If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
