The 2017 Volvo VHD: Battery boost
Your 2017 Volvo VHD needs battery service? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
Before the shop sees your VHD
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts.
What CarmaCars does here
Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Between shop visits
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
