problem #4

A8 L 3.0L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 6,354 miles

Damn, laser head replaced second time only to fail again.

I was told that it is a known problem and Audi was working on a software fix, due sometime late this year.

I could have my car a year with no cruise control. This sucks.

A8 L 3.0L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 5,000 miles

Didn't fix problem, waiting on replacement part.

Not sure what to do, but the A8 that I bought new has been very problematic. The ACC still isn’t working properly, the navigation system memory drops out daily, and now the Audi Pre sense is not working. The car has been in the shop at least 6 times in the past 5 months of ownership. Other than these issues, which are significant to me, I want to love this car.

Still a pain in the ass for a $110,000 car!
