Arranging the work for the R8
For battery service on the 2008 Audi R8, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop; the work is done there, not by CarmaCars. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
Details the shop needs
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. If you have the service history of your R8, have it ready for the shop. It is powered by the 4.2L 8-cylinder, with all-wheel drive.
Who does what
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Car care, briefly
Look at the tire tread before long trips. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
Before the shop starts
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies.
Over to you
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
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.
