Engine repair: how we help
Need engine work for your 2002 Lexus ES? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Before the shop sees your ES
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the ES. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. It uses the 3.0L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive.
From request to repair
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name.
Keep moving meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. The rental is priced like any other on our site. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Between shop visits
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
