Car diagnostics: how we help

Searching for car diagnostics for the 2016 Mazda MX-5 GT? CarmaCars does not do this work itself; we arrange it with a trusted shop. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.

About your MX-5

Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. If you have the service history of your MX-5, have it ready for the shop. Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive.

The steps

You approve the shop's quote before any work. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.

Talking to the shop

If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.

Between shop visits

Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months.
