Engine repair for the 1985 GMC DS
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For engine work on the 1985 GMC DS, 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 DS and the shop
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your DS, have it ready for the shop.
From request to repair
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. 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.
A car meanwhile
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Questions to ask the shop
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Good habits for your car
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old.
