Arranging the work for the X5
For an emissions test on the 2018 BMW X5, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. Rules on emissions testing differ by province and state.
Before the shop sees your X5
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the X5. Power comes from the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo, driving through an 8-speed automatic.
What CarmaCars does here
Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Talking to the shop
Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Good habits for your car
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
Make a request
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.
