Winter tires: how we help
For a winter tire change on the 2016 Audi A8, a trusted shop does the work and CarmaCars arranges it, with a rental if you need one. Winter tires are worth fitting before the first snow.
Your car, your notes
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the A8. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. The 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo with all-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
How the arrangement works
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. The rental is priced like any other on our site. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
A short checklist
Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Between shop visits
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow.
Want a price?
Ask in your request, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
Request winter tires
