The work on your A8
Your 2018 Audi A8 and rust repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
The car itself
Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. The length is 5.17 m. Check the size of a tight parking spot. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
From request to appointment
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. You can add a rental to the same request.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Add a rental to the same request as the work. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
How long you are without it
If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.
Aftercare
New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
What to bring
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
What affects the price
A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match.
