Arranging the work for the DS
Need a diagnostic check for your 1988 GMC DS? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
Your DS and the shop
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. If you have the service history of your DS, have it ready for the shop.
Our part and the shop's part
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A car meanwhile
Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. The rental is priced like any other on our site. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
What to ask
Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Between shop visits
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. 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.

Start with the car, the job and your location.
Request car diagnostics
