Battery boost: how we help
For battery service on the 2012 MINI Roadster, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Your car, your notes
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 1.6L 4-cylinder. If you have the service history of your Roadster, have it ready for the shop. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. The 1.6L 4-cylinder is what moves it, with front-wheel drive.
Who does what
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name.
A car while yours is in the shop
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
A short checklist
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Small things that help
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
Make a request
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.
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.
