The 2005 Audi A8: Wheel alignment
For a wheel alignment on the 2005 Audi A8, a trusted shop does the work and CarmaCars arranges it, with a rental if you need one. A crooked steering wheel on a straight road is a common sign the alignment is off.
Details the shop needs
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the A8. Power comes from the 4.2L 8-cylinder, driving through a 6-speed automatic.
How we help
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
Your rental while you wait
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Small things that help
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive.
Talking to the shop
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Next step
Start with a short request; a person replies within one business day.
