The 2017 BMW X5: Car diagnostics
The 2017 BMW X5 and a diagnostic check: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
About your X5
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The powertrain here is the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo with all-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic.
How the arrangement works
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
A car while yours is in the shop
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Small things that help
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old.
What to ask
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
Get an offer
Describe the problem, and we arrange a trusted shop.
Request car diagnostics
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
