Before the shop sees your A8

What CarmaCars does here
Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Good habits for your car
Look at the tire tread before long trips. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
What to ask
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree.
