Arranging the work for the Z3
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for a tow on the 1998 BMW Z3 we arrange a trusted shop. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
Your car, your notes
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Z3. Power: the 1.9L 4-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive.
The steps
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A rental while you wait
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Car care, briefly
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
What to ask
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history.
Ready to ask?
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
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.
