The 2006 Lexus LS: Towing
Need a tow for the 2006 Lexus LS? We arrange it with a trusted shop; the work is never done by CarmaCars. Once you are safe, send a request with where the car is and where it should go.
Your LS and the shop
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 4.3L 8-cylinder. If you have the service history of your LS, have it ready for the shop. The powertrain to know here is the 4.3L 8-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive.
The steps
You approve the shop's quote before any work. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name.
A car meanwhile
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Small things that help
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Check that all lights work every few weeks. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up.
Make a request
Describe the problem, and we arrange a trusted shop.
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.
