Emissions test for the 1990 Audi 80/90
Emissions test for your 1990 Audi 80/90: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. Rules on emissions testing differ by province and state.
About your 80/90
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.0L 4-cylinder. If you have the service history of your 80/90, have it ready for the shop. The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive.
What to send us
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
Your rental while you wait
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Good habits for your car
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Check that all lights work every few weeks. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow.
Before the shop starts
Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up.
When you know your dates
Start with the car, the job and your location.
Request emissions test
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.
