Arranging the work for the fortwo
Need engine work for your 2012 smart fortwo? 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.
About your fortwo
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The 1.0L 3-cylinder does the work, through a 5-speed automatic.
Who does what
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A car while yours is in the shop
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Good habits for your car
Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter.
Talking to the shop
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Ready when you are
A short request starts it: the car, the problem, and when suits you.
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.
