Car diagnostics: how we help
The 2016 Lexus GS and a diagnostic check: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
Before the shop sees your GS
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your GS, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The engine is the 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid, with rear-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT).
Who does what
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date.
A car meanwhile
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Before the shop starts
If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon.
Car care, briefly
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Talk to a person
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.
