The 2020 Audi A8: Rust repair
This page covers rust repair for the 2020 Audi A8, and a rental while the car is with us. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
What your car means for the work
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
What to send us
You can add a rental to the same request. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
Keep driving meanwhile
Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. Add a rental to the same request as the work. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Pricing, plainly
We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person.
Keeping it that way
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
How long it takes
We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days. If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it.
Before you drop the car off
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
Talk to a person
Book the work with a short request, and add a rental if you need one.
