Arranging the work for the RS
Searching for battery boost for the 2019 Audi RS? CarmaCars does not do this work itself; we arrange it with a trusted shop. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
About your RS
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. If you have the service history of your RS, have it ready for the shop. The powertrain here is the 2.5L 5-cylinder turbo with all-wheel drive and a 7-speed automatic.
How the arrangement works
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
A car meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Talking to the shop
Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
Small things that help
Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive.
Questions first?
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
