Arranging the work for the S8
CarmaCars does not do this work itself. For battery service on the 2014 Audi S8, we arrange it with a trusted shop or connect you with one. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Before the shop sees your S8
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 4.0L 8-cylinder turbo. Under the hood: the 4.0L 8-cylinder turbo and all-wheel drive.
The steps
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
Your rental while you wait
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Between shop visits
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
Talking to the shop
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
