Your Q5 and rust repair
Rust repair for your 2012 Audi Q5? Start with a request; a person replies with a price and a time. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
About your Q5
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Getting a price
Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
Keep your week on track
We collect the rental when your car is ready. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Timing
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.
A few things first
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Pricing, plainly
Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation.
Keeping it that way
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
Still deciding?
A person reads your request and replies with a price and a time.
