The 1996 Audi A6: Wheel alignment
CarmaCars does not do this work itself. For a wheel alignment on the 1996 Audi A6, we arrange it with a trusted shop or connect you with one. A crooked steering wheel on a straight road is a common sign the alignment is off.
Your car, your notes
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.8L 6-cylinder. All-wheel drive cars are fussy about matching tires; replace them as a set when the shop advises it. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Its powertrain is the 2.8L 6-cylinder with all-wheel drive.
What we arrange
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. 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.
A car meanwhile
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Getting a clear quote
Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
Car care, briefly
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell.
Next step
Send the car's details and the job, and we take the next step.
Request wheel alignment
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.
