Emissions test: how we help
CarmaCars does not do this work itself. For an emissions test on the 2008 Audi A8, we arrange it with a trusted shop or connect you with one. Rules on emissions testing differ by province and state.
Details the shop needs
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. If you have the service history of your A8, have it ready for the shop. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The powertrain here is the 4.2L 8-cylinder with all-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic.
What CarmaCars does here
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
Your rental while you wait
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Car care, briefly
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
Before the shop starts
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon.
Let us know
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.
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.
