Arranging the work for the S60
Need battery service for your 2016 Volvo S60? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Details the shop needs
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. It is powered by the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive.
Our part and the shop's part
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
A car while yours is in the shop
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
A short checklist
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies.
Car care, briefly
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. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
Send a request
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
