Arranging the work for the NX
The 2018 Lexus NX and a diagnostic check: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Your NX and the shop
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the NX. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Under the hood: the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid and all-wheel drive.
The steps
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
What to ask
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
Small things that help
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Ready when you are
A short request starts it: the car, the problem, and when suits you.
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.
