Booking the work for the A6
Need body repair for your 2012 Audi A6? Tell us about the car and when suits you. This is body repair. Mechanical work such as engines, brakes and oil changes is not part of it.
Your A6, up close
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. There are 8 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
The request
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Ask anything about the work in the request. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
A rental meanwhile
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
After the work
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
What to bring
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
What affects the price
If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail.
Timing
Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work. We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover.
