Before the shop sees your A4

Small things that help
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter.
Getting a clear quote
Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
