Mechanic: how we help
The 1997 Lexus LX and mechanical repairs or maintenance: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. Routine maintenance and repairs are done by a mechanic at a shop we trust, not by CarmaCars.
About your LX
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. The powertrain to know here is the 4.5L 6-cylinder, with all-wheel drive.
Who does what
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Good habits for your car
Check that all lights work every few weeks. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt.
Questions first?
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
