Your 2017 Audi S3: the work
Here is how we handle rust repair for the 2017 Audi S3: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your S3, up close
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Booking a time
We reply within one business day with a time and a 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.
Need a car meanwhile?
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Keeping it that way
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
When the car is ready
Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule. Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer.
A few things first
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
Pricing, plainly
We price the job before we start, never after. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
Let us know
A person reads your request and replies with a price and a time.
