The 1993 Ford Explorer: Car diagnostics
Car diagnostics for your 1993 Ford Explorer: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
Before the shop sees your Explorer
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The 4.0L 6-cylinder, paired with a 5-speed manual, drives it.
The steps
Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Small things that help
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
Getting a clear quote
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
