Arranging the work for the A8
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for a tow on the 2015 Audi A8 we arrange a trusted shop. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
Before the shop sees your A8
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo with all-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
Who does what
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. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
Stay on the road
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
What to ask
Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Small things that help
Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Next step
A short request starts it: the car, the problem, and when suits you.
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.
