The work on your S3
Your 2018 Audi S3 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.
Your S3, up close
Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Getting a price
You can add a rental to the same request. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Ask anything about the work in the request.
Driving while yours is in
Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
After the work
New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
Why prices differ
We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail.
Before you drop the car off
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. 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.
Timing
We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished.
