Engine repair for the 1981 Dodge ST.REGIS
Your 1981 Dodge ST.REGIS needs engine work? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Your ST.REGIS and the shop
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them.
What CarmaCars does here
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. The rental is priced like any other on our site. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
Between shop visits
Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
Questions first?
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
Request engine repair
