Winter tires: how we help
The 2003 Lexus IS and a winter tire change: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. Storing your off-season tires is often something the shop can arrange.
Details the shop needs
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. If you have the service history of your IS, have it ready for the shop. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The powertrain here is the 3.0L 6-cylinder with rear-wheel drive and a 5-speed automatic.
From request to repair
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. You approve the shop's quote before any work. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. The rental is priced like any other on our site. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Talking to the shop
Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it.
Small things that help
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
Ready to ask?
A short request starts it: the car, the problem, and when suits you.
