Arranging the work for the A6
For a safety certificate on your 2000 Audi A6, we arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. A used car you buy in Ontario needs a Safety Standards Certificate before it can be plated.
Details the shop needs
If you have the service history of your A6, have it ready for the shop. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The engine is the 2.7L 6-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive and a 5-speed automatic.
Who does what
You approve the shop's quote before any work. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
A car while yours is in the shop
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Talking to the shop
Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
Good habits for your car
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
Ready when you are
Ask us, and we tell you whether we can arrange it.
Request safety certificate
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
