The 2013 Audi S8: Towing
Towing for your 2013 Audi S8: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
Before the shop sees your S8
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the S8. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The 4.0L 8-cylinder turbo is what moves it, with all-wheel drive.
What to send us
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. You approve the shop's quote before any work. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name.
Your rental while you wait
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Good habits for your car
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow.
Before the shop starts
Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
Want a price?
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.
