The 1990 Dodge Shadow: Engine repair
Need engine work for your 1990 Dodge Shadow? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Before the shop sees your Shadow
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Shadow. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.2L 4-cylinder. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. The powertrain here is the 2.2L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual.
Our part and the shop's part
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Car care, briefly
Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
Talking to the shop
Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Want a price?
Start with a short request; a person replies within one business day.
