Mechanic: how we help
Need mechanical repairs or maintenance for your 2000 Mazda 626? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. Tell us what the car is doing, and we find a shop suited to the job.
Your car, your notes
If you have the service history of your 626, have it ready for the shop. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.0L 4-cylinder. The 2.0L 4-cylinder is what moves it, with front-wheel drive.
The steps
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
A car while yours is in the shop
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Before the shop starts
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare.
Between shop visits
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
Your move
Describe the problem, and we arrange a trusted shop.
Request mechanic
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.
