Wheel alignment: how we help
For a wheel alignment on your 1999 Audi A8, we arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. Hitting a pothole hard can knock the wheels out of line.
Your A8 and the shop
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 3.7L 8-cylinder. The powertrain here is the 3.7L 8-cylinder with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed automatic.
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. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
A car while yours is in the shop
We collect the rental when your car is back. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Between shop visits
Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
A short checklist
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
