Arranging the work for the XC90
CarmaCars does not do this work itself. For an emissions test on the 2003 Volvo XC90, 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
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.5L 5-cylinder turbo. If you have the service history of your XC90, have it ready for the shop. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the XC90. It runs the 2.5L 5-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive.
What we arrange
Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
Keep moving meanwhile
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Small things that help
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. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
What to ask
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Ready when you are
Need a rental too? Add it to the same request.
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.
