The 1996 Dodge Avenger: Car diagnostics
For a diagnostic check on the 1996 Dodge Avenger, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
About your Avenger
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. If you have the service history of your Avenger, have it ready for the shop. The 2.0L 4-cylinder does the work, through a 5-speed manual.
How the request works

A car while yours is in the shop
We collect the rental when your car is back. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Good habits for your car
Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
A short checklist
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
