The 1990 BMW 7 Series: Wheel alignment
Wheel alignment for your 1990 BMW 7 Series: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. A crooked steering wheel on a straight road is a common sign the alignment is off.
Before the shop sees your 7 Series
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the 7 Series. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The powertrain here is the 3.4L 6-cylinder with rear-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic.
What CarmaCars does here
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A rental while you wait
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Getting a clear quote
Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree.
Between shop visits
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
