Arranging the work for the GL
Car battery replacement for the 1982 Subaru GL: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Before the shop sees your GL
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. If you have the service history of your GL, have it ready for the shop.
Our part and the shop's part
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job.
Your rental while you wait
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. The rental is priced like any other on our site. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Between shop visits
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
