Engine repair: how we help
Need engine work for your 1998 BMW Z3? A trusted shop does the work, not CarmaCars, and we keep you driving meanwhile. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Your Z3 and the shop
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. If you have the service history of your Z3, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. It uses the 1.9L 4-cylinder and rear-wheel drive.
The steps
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. 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.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Good habits for your car
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Ask us
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.
