Engine repair: how we help

Need engine work for your 1995 Lexus LS? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.

Your car, your notes

A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 4.0L 8-cylinder. It runs the 4.0L 8-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive.

What CarmaCars does here

The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. 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 rental while you wait

Rent by the day while the shop has your car. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.

Good habits for your car

Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow.

Talking to the shop

Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree.

Ask us

A short request starts it: the car, the problem, and when suits you.
