About your W250 Pickup
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The powertrain to know here is the 5.2L 8-cylinder, with all-wheel drive.
From request to repair
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
Keep moving meanwhile
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
What to ask
Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up.
Good habits for your car
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Want a price?
Send the car's details and the job, and we take the next step.
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.
