Battery boost: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for battery service on the 2008 Audi S5 we arrange a trusted shop. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Details the shop needs
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the S5. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The 4.2L 8-cylinder is what moves it, with all-wheel drive.
How the arrangement works
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
A car while yours is in the shop
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. The rental is priced like any other on our site. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Small things that help
Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
Ask us
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.
