Arranging the work for the LS
Need battery service for the 2018 Lexus LS? We arrange it with a trusted shop; the work is never done by CarmaCars. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Before the shop sees your LS
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the LS. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. It runs the 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid, with rear-wheel drive.
From request to repair
We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
Keep moving meanwhile
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Car care, briefly
Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
Getting a clear quote
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
When you know your dates
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
