Arranging the work for the 626
Need engine work for the 1985 Mazda 626? We arrange it with a trusted shop; the work is never done by CarmaCars. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Your car, your notes
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.0L 4-cylinder. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed manual.
What CarmaCars does here
You approve the shop's quote before any work. 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. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Small things that help
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt.
Send a request
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
