Arranging the work for the SVX
For battery service on the 1997 Subaru SVX, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Your car, your notes
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. If you have the service history of your SVX, have it ready for the shop. The 3.3L 6-cylinder does the work, through a 4-speed automatic.
How we help
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
A car while yours is in the shop
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. The rental is priced like any other on our site. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Questions to ask the shop
If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Car care, briefly
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
Still deciding?
