Engine repair: how we help
Need engine work for your Lexus SC? 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 SC and the shop
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the SC. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request.
How the request works
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. You approve the shop's quote before any work. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Talking to the shop
Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon.
Between shop visits
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months.
One more step
Send the car's details and the job, and we take the next step.
Request engine repair
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
Rent a car while yours is in in Toronto
We have no car while yours is in on the site right now. Request one and we look for it for your dates, or take a similar car that is available now.
