Engine repair: how we help
Need engine work for your 2005 Saab 9-7? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Before the shop sees your 9-7
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the 9-7. Power: the 4.2L 6-cylinder; drive: all-wheel drive.
How the arrangement works
We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Talking to the shop
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour.
Good habits for your car
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Next step
Start with the car, the job and your location.
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.
