Arranging the work for the DK
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for engine work on the 1986 GMC DK we arrange a trusted shop. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Details the shop needs
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts.
Who does what
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
Keep moving meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Small things that help
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
Questions to ask the shop
If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree.
Want a price?
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
Request engine repair
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
