The 1981 BMW 528e: Engine repair
Your 1981 BMW 528e needs engine work? We arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
About your 528e
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the 528e. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car.
From request to repair
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
Stay on the road
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. The rental is priced like any other on our site. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Questions to ask the shop
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Car care, briefly
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
