Arranging the work for the GS
Need engine work for your 1995 Lexus GS? 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.
Your GS and the shop
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Under the hood: the 3.0L 6-cylinder and rear-wheel drive.
From request to repair
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A car meanwhile
We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Small things that help
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
