Your car, your notes
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Power: the 3.9L 8-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive.
What we arrange
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
Keep moving meanwhile
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Delivery starts at $0 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history.
Between shop visits
Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
