Arranging the work for the RL
Emissions test for the 2001 Acura RL: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. Rules on emissions testing differ by province and state.
Details the shop needs
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the RL. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 3.5L 6-cylinder. The 3.5L 6-cylinder does the work, through a 4-speed automatic.
From request to repair
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. You approve the shop's quote before any work. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We collect the rental when your car is back. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Between shop visits
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
Talking to the shop
Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Your move
A request is free and gets a reply within one business day.
Request emissions test
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.
