Engine repair: how we help
Your 2001 Nissan Maxima needs engine work? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Your Maxima and the shop
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your Maxima, have it ready for the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. It uses the 3.0L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive.
What to send us
You approve the shop's quote before any work. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
Your rental while you wait
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
What to ask
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Good habits for your car
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
Questions first?
Start with a short request; a person replies within one business day.
