Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently asked questions about AutoIn Bilskade, car body damage and paintwork, assessments and pricing, repairs, insurance, payment, warranty and any issues.
Yes. Whenever a repair affects cameras, radar or other ADAS sensors, we perform the required calibration before the car is delivered back. This includes Tesla Autopilot components.
At AutoIn Bilskade, you can get help with all types of repairs — both minor and major damage — including paint damage, body damage, plastic repairs, and glass damage. We are a full-service provider for damage-related services.
Repair time depends on the extent of the damage and the availability of spare parts. We’ll give you an estimate after we’ve completed a damage assessment.
During the repair, we may discover the need for additional parts or more extensive painting to avoid color differences. In many cases, this can extend the repair time.
We always aim to complete repairs as quickly as possible and will notify you as soon as the car is ready.
A small stone chip in the windshield can often be fixed with a repair.
However, if the chip has started to spread or there is a crack in the glass, the windshield needs to be replaced.
In other words, it’s often best to deal with glass damage as soon as possible.
Windshield replacement is usually completed within one working day.
If you have glass coverage, the insurance company typically covers a windshield chip repair in full, meaning the repair is free for you.
If your car has comprehensive insurance or glass coverage, you usually only pay the deductible for windshield replacement. The price of a new windshield depends on the glass type and any additional features such as camera systems and heating.
We specialize in repairing collision damage and paint damage. Unfortunately, rust work is not part of our services.
As a result, we do not provide a warranty on paintwork related to rust repairs, or if bubbles/paint breakthrough occur due to ongoing rust development.
This is standard practice in the industry because:
Yes — if the dent is small and the painted surface around the damage is intact, it can in many cases be repaired using the PDR method (Paintless Dent Repair) without repainting.
This method is typically used for small dents or minor damage on the side of the car, for example from a parking lot incident.
Yes — if the paint damage is superficial, such as a small scratch without dents, we can do spot painting where we paint only the affected area. Note that this depends on the car’s color, as some colors can be difficult to match 100% using this method. Book an online damage assessment, and we can look at the damage together and recommend the best options.
For wheel/rim damage, we can repaint the wheels. If there are dents/nicks in the rim, we can repair the damage before painting.
