Arranging the work for the M
For engine work on the 2013 BMW M, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Your M and the shop
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the M. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Power comes from the 4.4L 8-cylinder turbo, driving through a 6-speed manual.
How the arrangement works
You approve the shop's quote before any work. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
A car while yours is in the shop
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Small things that help
Look at the tire tread before long trips. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies.
Ready to ask?
Describe the problem, and we arrange a trusted shop.
Request engine repair
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.
