A rental while yours is in the shop

Arranging the work for the S3
Need a safety certificate for your Audi S3? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. Only a licensed inspection station can issue a Safety Standards Certificate in Ontario.
Details the shop needs
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the S3. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request.
What CarmaCars does here
Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. You approve the shop's quote before any work. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
Driving while yours is at the shop
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Car care, briefly
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Look at the tire tread before long trips.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon.
Your move
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
Request safety certificate
