Arranging the work for the LFA
For engine work on the 2012 Lexus LFA, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Before the shop sees your LFA
If you have the service history of your LFA, have it ready for the shop. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The 4.8L 10-cylinder with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
What CarmaCars does here
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
A car meanwhile
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Car care, briefly
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
What to ask
Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour.
