Emissions test for the 1989 BMW M
Emissions test for the 1989 BMW M: 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
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. If you have the service history of your M, have it ready for the shop. The engine is the 2.3L 4-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual.
Our part and the shop's part
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job.
A car while yours is in the shop
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Car care, briefly
Check that all lights work every few weeks. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
A short checklist
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
Next step
Start with a short request; a person replies 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.
