Car diagnostics: how we help
Need a diagnostic check for the 2005 Lexus LS? 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.
Your LS and the shop
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your LS, have it ready for the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The 4.3L 8-cylinder does the work, through a 6-speed automatic.
Our part and the shop's part
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Talking to the shop
Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree.
Car care, briefly
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
Ready when you are
Ask, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
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.
