Arranging the work for the X6
Towing for the 2012 BMW X6: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. If the car is blocking traffic, stay safe first and call for help.
Before the shop sees your X6
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The powertrain to know here is the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive.
What CarmaCars does here
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Between shop visits
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour.
Still deciding?
Ask, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
Request towing
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.
