Car diagnostics: how we help
Need a diagnostic check for the Kia Sephia? We arrange it with a trusted shop; the work is never done by CarmaCars. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
Before the shop sees your Sephia
If you have the service history of your Sephia, have it ready for the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop.
Our part and the shop's part
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. You approve the shop's quote before any work. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
A car meanwhile
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. The rental is priced like any other on our site. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
What to ask
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Small things that help
Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Look at the tire tread before long trips.
Ready when you are
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
Request car diagnostics
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
