Engine repair: how we help
Your 2018 BMW X3 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.
Your car, your notes
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the X3. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive.
What CarmaCars does here
Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Stay on the road
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Car care, briefly
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree.
Make a request
A short request starts it: the car, the problem, and when suits you.
