Arranging the work for the 780
The 1990 Volvo 780 and an emissions test: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. Emissions tests are required in some provinces and states; a licensed shop does the test.
Your 780 and the shop
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your 780, have it ready for the shop. Its 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo drives through a 4-speed automatic.
Who does what
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. 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. Check that all lights work every few weeks. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used.
Ready when you are
Start with the car, the job and your location.
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.
