Are there any mobile mechanics for Audi R8?

Hi there probably are but I would pick the one with VAG specialist in the title, most mobile techs are terrified by your type of car as everything needs a special tool just to do a service, I would be looking for a static VAG specialist, as they will have the right tools and knowledge.

Hi Steve thank you, I will pass you over to my partner who the car belongs to...The car is hardly ever driven and has been in a garage last 6 Months or so which since the winter came has been quite damp in there, the brake disks have rusted over and the car seems locked on the brakes and cannot push, the car just will not start just like trying to start a car with HT leads off, when it last started a yellow light came up engine management so something not right and car would not tick over, now will not fire at all, many thanks John

I'd highly recommend getting it to a conventional garage specifically an Audi specialist or as Steve says a VAG specialist.

Thank you very much, it is proving difficult to find someone who can come out to ascertain the problem... we will keep trying 😀

Hi if you can get the car towed out it may well free the brakes, the discs will clean up when its driven could be the fuel in it has deteriorated but the only way to make sure is get the car scanned to pick up the fault codes, any mobile diagnostic tech should be able to do that for a modest fee.

Thank you, started to change spark plugs which were really dirty, so our hope is that is the problem, trying to get someone to come out is proving difficult as soon as you say the make of the car
