Watched a CarCareKiosk video? When to let a Miami shop take over

CarCareKiosk has tens of thousands of free how-to videos for specific makes and models, made to help you prepare for the repair. Some jobs, like a battery, a bulb or an air filter, are fine in your driveway. When the video shows a job that needs a lift, special tools or a diagnosis, bring the car to Sprinter Garage.

How it works here

CarCareKiosk at Sprinter Garage

  1. 1
    Tell us what you watched

    Text us the CarCareKiosk video topic and your year, make and model. It helps us know where you are in the job.

  2. 2
    Started already? That is fine

    If you began the job, bring the parts and fasteners you removed in a bag. We will check what is there.

  3. 3
    Diagnosis and written price

    We confirm the cause and give you a written price for your exact car before any work starts.

  4. 4
    Pick your warranty

    You choose a 90 day, 1 year or 2 year shop warranty on the repair.

How the price works
  • A written price for your vehicle before any work starts.
  • Sales tax on parts only, never on labor.
  • You pick the shop warranty: 90 days, 1 year, or 2 years.
  • Photos with every estimate and a text at each step.

What CarCareKiosk is

CarCareKiosk describes itself as a startup making high quality, concise and free how-to videos for your car. It says it has produced more than 60,000 videos since 2010 across more than 50 brands, and that its videos are made by ASE certified technicians. Topics run from oil and fluid checks to batteries, bulbs, filters and tires.

Its motto is about preparing for the repair, which is a good way to walk into any shop: knowing what a part is and where it lives.

Jobs that usually need a shop

In our experience, the jobs that outgrow a driveway are the ones with a diagnosis behind them: a check engine light, an AC that blows warm, a hybrid or EV warning, a transmission that shifts hard, or brakes with a pulsing pedal. Those need testing equipment, and a wrong guess wastes parts money.

We also see cars with a job half done after a video. That is no problem. Bring it in, tell us what was removed, and we finish it with a written price first.

Questions people ask

Can I bring my car in after starting a CarCareKiosk repair?
Yes. Bring any parts and fasteners you removed and tell us where you stopped. We inspect and give you a written price before finishing the job.
Can I bring my own parts?
Ask us before you buy. Tell us the part and your vehicle and we will tell you how we handle it and what the shop warranty covers.
Which jobs should I not do myself?
Anything that needs a diagnosis, high voltage hybrid or EV parts, AC refrigerant, or lifting the car safely is usually a shop job. When in doubt, text us before you start.
Is a CarCareKiosk video right for my exact car?
CarCareKiosk organizes videos by make and model, but trims and engines differ. If what you see under the hood does not match, stop and ask.
