Scratch repair: your A3
For the 2015 Audi A3, scratch repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Your A3, up close
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. At 4.31 m from bumper to bumper, it is mid-size. It fits most condo and driveway spots. NHTSA lists 7 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Getting a quote
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
Need a car meanwhile?
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. 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.
Aftercare
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
A few things first
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
Planning around the work
If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
How the price is set
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
Want a price?
Book the work and a rental in one request.
