Arranging the work for the A5
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for battery service on the 2017 Audi A5 we arrange a trusted shop. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Your A5 and the shop
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive.
From request to repair
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one.
Your rental while you wait
We collect the rental when your car is back. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
A short checklist
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history.
Between shop visits
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
When you know your dates
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.
Request battery boost
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.
