Arranging the work for the A8
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for a diagnostic check on the 2015 Audi A8 we arrange a trusted shop. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Before the shop sees your A8
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo. If you have the service history of your A8, have it ready for the shop. It uses the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo and all-wheel drive.
Who does what
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
A car meanwhile
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour.
Good habits for your car
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
