Emissions test: how we help
Emissions test for the 1996 Lexus LS: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. Emissions tests are required in some provinces and states; a licensed shop does the test.
Your car, your notes
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 4.0L 8-cylinder. Power comes from the 4.0L 8-cylinder, driving through a 4-speed automatic.
How we help
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. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
A car meanwhile
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Good habits for your car
If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt.
Getting a clear quote
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
One more step
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
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.
