Arranging the work for the XJ
For a wheel alignment on your 1998 Jaguar XJ, we arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. Hitting a pothole hard can knock the wheels out of line.
About your XJ
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your XJ, have it ready for the shop. The powertrain here is the 4.0L 8-cylinder with rear-wheel drive and a 5-speed automatic.
What CarmaCars does here
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A car meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Good habits for your car
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
Before the shop starts
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
Over to you
Tell us the job and the car, and a person replies.
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.
