Car diagnostics: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for a diagnostic check on the 2002 Mazda B-Series we arrange a trusted shop. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
About your B-Series
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car.
From request to repair
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. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We collect the rental when your car is back. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Car care, briefly
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Questions to ask the shop
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare.
