Arranging the work for the LS
Your 1990 Lexus LS needs a diagnostic check? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
Your LS and the shop
If you have the service history of your LS, have it ready for the shop. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the LS. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Power: the 4.0L 8-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive.
The steps
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. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
Stay on the road
The rental is priced like any other on our site. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Talking to the shop
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon.
Good habits for your car
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt.
Over to you
Start with the car, the job and your location.
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.
