Arranging the work for the SRX
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For engine work on the 2012 Cadillac SRX, we connect you with a trusted shop. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Your car, your notes
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. If you have the service history of your SRX, have it ready for the shop. The 3.6L 6-cylinder is what moves it, with front-wheel drive.
From request to repair
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
Your rental while you wait
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Small things that help
Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
Want a price?
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
