For engine work on the 2011 Lexus RX, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Before the shop sees your RX
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid does the work, through an automatic (CVT).
How the request works
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A rental while you wait
We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Questions to ask the shop
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Between shop visits
Look at the tire tread before long trips. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
Questions first?
Ask, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
