Engine repair: how we help
CarmaCars does not do this work itself. For engine work on the 1992 BMW M, we arrange it with a trusted shop or connect you with one. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Before the shop sees your M
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the M. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Power: the 3.5L 6-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive.
How the arrangement works
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. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
Driving while yours is at the shop
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Before the shop starts
Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare.
Car care, briefly
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Over to you
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
