The work on your A6
Book rust repair for the 2008 Audi A6, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
The car itself
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Booking a time
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
Driving while yours is in
Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
A few things first
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
Why prices differ
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
After the work
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
Timing
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule.
Ask us
A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
