Arranging the work for the RS
Your 2019 Audi RS needs a tow? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. If the car is blocking traffic, stay safe first and call for help.
Before the shop sees your RS
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.5L 5-cylinder turbo. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the RS. It is powered by the 2.5L 5-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive.
What to send us
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
A rental while you wait
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Car care, briefly
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
Talking to the shop
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
When you know your dates
Ask us, and we tell you whether we can arrange it.
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.
Rent a car while yours is in in Toronto
