Car diagnostics for the 1986 Jeep Comanche
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for a diagnostic check on the 1986 Jeep Comanche we arrange a trusted shop. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Before the shop sees your Comanche
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. The engine is the 2.1L 4-cylinder turbo, with rear-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual.
The steps
You approve the shop's quote before any work. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job.
Your rental while you wait
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. The rental is priced like any other on our site. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Car care, briefly
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Get an offer
Start with a short request; a person replies within one business day.
