Car diagnostics: how we help
For a diagnostic check on the 1999 Lexus GS, CarmaCars connects you with a trusted shop; the work is done there, never by CarmaCars. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Your car, your notes
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The 3.0L 6-cylinder is what moves it, with rear-wheel drive.
Our part and the shop's part
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
Your rental while you wait
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Car care, briefly
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
A short checklist
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Your move
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.
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.
