The 2009 Audi S8: Car diagnostics
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for a diagnostic check on the 2009 Audi S8 we arrange a trusted shop. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Details the shop needs
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the S8. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. If you have the service history of your S8, have it ready for the shop. The 5.2L 10-cylinder, paired with a 6-speed automatic, drives it.
Our part and the shop's part
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job.
Keep moving meanwhile
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Small things that help
Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
Getting a clear quote
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Still deciding?
A short request starts it: the car, the problem, and when suits you.
Request car diagnostics
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.
