Towing: how we help
For a tow on the 2016 Audi A6, a trusted shop does the work and CarmaCars arranges it, with a rental if you need one. Once you are safe, send a request with where the car is and where it should go.
Details the shop needs
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your A6, have it ready for the shop. It is powered by the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive.
Who does what
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. 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.
Keep moving meanwhile
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts.
Between shop visits
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow.
Questions first?
Describe the problem, and we arrange a trusted shop.
Request towing
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.
