Your 2020 BMW i8 needs a diagnostic check? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Details the shop needs
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The engine is the 1.5L 3-cylinder turbo hybrid, with all-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic.
From request to repair
We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
A rental while you wait
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. We collect the rental when your car is back. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Between shop visits
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
Talking to the shop
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts.
