The 2016 smart fortwo: Engine repair
Engine repair for your 2016 smart fortwo: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Details the shop needs
If you have the service history of your fortwo, have it ready for the shop. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The 0.9L 3-cylinder turbo does the work, through a 6-speed automatic.
The steps
Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
A car meanwhile
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies.
Good habits for your car
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt.
Send a request
Describe the problem, and we arrange a trusted shop.
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.
