The 1996 BMW M: Wheel alignment
Need a wheel alignment for your 1996 BMW M? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. Hitting a pothole hard can knock the wheels out of line.
About your M
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. It is powered by the 3.2L 6-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive.
What to send us
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
A car meanwhile
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
A short checklist
Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history.
Between shop visits
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Check that all lights work every few weeks. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Your move
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
Request wheel alignment
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.
