Arranging the work for the 9-5
The 2007 Saab 9-5 and battery service: 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
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. If you have the service history of your 9-5, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo. Its 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo drives through a 5-speed manual.
What to send us
You approve the shop's quote before any work. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
Keep moving meanwhile
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Good habits for your car
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
Getting a clear quote
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
Get an offer
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
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.
