Collision centre: your A3
CarmaCars takes requests for collision repair on the 2016 Audi A3, and rents you a car while yours is in. Repairs can go through an insurance claim or be paid directly; tell us which in your request. Collision repair covers panels, bumpers, paint and, when needed, frame and structural work.
Size and finish
As a small car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
The request
You can add a rental to the same request. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. A person reads your request and replies with the next step.
Stay on the road
Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Looking after it afterwards
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
What affects the price
The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person.
When the car is ready
Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in.
Getting the car ready
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
Talk to a person
Ready when you are: send the details of the car.
