Rust repair: the 2012 Audi A7
This page covers rust repair for the 2012 Audi A7, and a rental while the car is with us. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Size and finish
Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Your request
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
A car while yours is in
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
Getting the car ready
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
What affects the price
Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear.
Planning around the work
Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens. If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in.
Next step
A quote costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
