Emissions test: how we help
CarmaCars does not do this work itself. For an emissions test on the 1985 GMC C7, we arrange it with a trusted shop or connect you with one. Rules on emissions testing differ by province and state.
Your car, your notes
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your C7, have it ready for the shop. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop.
What to send us
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
Stay on the road
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Delivery starts at $0 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Small things that help
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
Before the shop starts
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour.
When you know your dates
A short request starts it: the car, the problem, and when suits you.
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.
