Emissions test: how we help
Need an emissions test for your 2016 BMW X3? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. Rules on emissions testing differ by province and state.
Your car, your notes
If you have the service history of your X3, have it ready for the shop. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive.
Our part and the shop's part
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name.
A rental while you wait
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. 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.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Between shop visits
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. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter.
Talk to a person
Send the car's details and the job, and we take the next step.
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.
Rent a car while yours is in in Toronto
