Engine repair: how we help
Your 2005 Mazda MX-5 Miata needs engine work? We arrange it with a trusted shop, the work is done by the shop and not by CarmaCars, and we rent you a car meanwhile. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Details the shop needs
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Power comes from the 1.8L 4-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed manual.
The steps
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Good habits for your car
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
Talk to a person
Tell us the job and the car, and a person replies.
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.
