Car diagnostics: how we help

For a diagnostic check on the 1983 Dodge Colt, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.

Your Colt and the shop

The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed.

What CarmaCars does here

Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.

Driving while yours is at the shop

A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.

Talking to the shop

Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it.

Good habits for your car

Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell.

Questions first?

Send the car's details and the job, and we take the next step.
