Car diagnostics: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for a diagnostic check on the 1998 Ferrari F355 we arrange a trusted shop. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
About your F355
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed.
What we arrange
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
Keep moving meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Car care, briefly
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow.
Talking to the shop
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Your move
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
Request car diagnostics
