Arranging the work for the tC
Searching for engine repair for the 2007 Scion tC? CarmaCars does not do this work itself; we arrange it with a trusted shop. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Details the shop needs
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The engine is the 2.4L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic.
How the request works
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
A car meanwhile
The rental is priced like any other on our site. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Between shop visits
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
What to ask
Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Talk to a person
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
Request engine repair
