Emissions test: how we help
Need an emissions test for your 2017 Ram 1500? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. Emissions tests are required in some provinces and states; a licensed shop does the test.
About your 1500
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo. If you have the service history of your 1500, have it ready for the shop. The 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo does the work, through an 8-speed automatic.
How the arrangement works
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
Your rental while you wait
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Small things that help
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
What to ask
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Ask us
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.
