Car diagnostics for the 2012 Audi S5
For a diagnostic check on the 2012 Audi S5, a trusted shop does the work and CarmaCars arranges it, with a rental if you need one. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
Your S5 and the shop
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the S5. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. If you have the service history of your S5, have it ready for the shop. Power: the 3.0L 6-cylinder supercharged; drive: all-wheel drive.
How the request works
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Good habits for your car
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
What to ask
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Ready when you are
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
