Engine repair for the 1992 Audi V8
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for engine work on the 1992 Audi V8 we arrange a trusted shop. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Your V8 and the shop
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 4.2L 8-cylinder. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The powertrain to know here is the 4.2L 8-cylinder, with all-wheel drive.
What to send us
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Stay on the road
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Small things that help
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt.
One more step
A request is free and gets a reply within one business day.
