Has Your Car's Value Changed?
Used car values are constantly changing. Edmunds lets you track your vehicle's value over time so you can decide when to sell or trade in.
Most luxurious car I’ve owned yet.
Repairs are gonna be expensive (as to be expected). Purchased car in late July of last year. Lots of tire noise from left front tire. Dealer service manager said that was from tire “feathering”. Later replace both front tires with same name rand tires that come stock (Pirelli). When it comes time to replace all tires, will go with another name brand (although not too many out there). Beautiful car, in an understated way. Very big and roomy. Installed Audi rings puddle lights in doors, which really look nice! Had to replace sensors for cruise control and other sensors back in February, plus rear brake pads and rotors. Very painful to the wallet, to say the least. When you get a car of this pedigree, you have to expect expensive repairs. Have learned to now seek out a good independent shop, instead of the Audi dealership. Have had two Mercedes S-class cars in the past, which were great cars, but the Audi shames them. Audi really likes to show off their bells and whistles mor than other luxury makes. Now 6/26/2021, and after more than 129k miles I still like this car very much. Repairs are expensive (less so with an independent repair shop). Seek out a good independent as I did. When you consider that the car cost anywhere from $76k to $100k depending on options and packages, it is a relative bargain after depreciation. Hard to justify a new car sometimes.

2012 A8L has some LEMONS to admit and RESOLVE
Audi is building a few (hopefully) LEMONS and attempting to outrun their flawed automobiles with marketing dollars. A search of the AUDI forums disclose a number of late model A8L vehicles with similar problems and a lack of acknowledgement by Audi that they intend to stand behind their warrantees. Audi is intimidating dealers, directing them to not service the car or refusing to pay them for warrantee repairs. Seat sensor - airbag deactivation Mirror heat not working tranny hard downshift Radio station refresh Cell phone pairing fails Console rattle Door close/locks malfunction when cold Clunk on acceleration MMI system fails to play .wav and .flac files Int lighting flickers
The biggest disappointment
Ladies and Gentlemen, I am counting the days to return this leased vehicle and forget about this nightmare. I have experienced an array of problems during the last three years ranging from complete power steering replacement, faulty MMI unit, electric sunshades, tiers to excessive sticky brake residue., etc. The biggest problem are the tires. Audi created the unique size of the wheel for this vehicle (265/40/R20), which is only available from Pirelli tire manufacturer in all-season configuration. There are no other all-season tires available for this vehicle from any tire manufacturer in the world. Pirelli tires are extremely noisy from the beginning with horrible traction during wet and snowy weather and they last for only 20000 miles with very slow and conservative driving. After which the noise becomes unbearable. The biggest disappointment ever.

Auto Mags are missing the boat
WOW!!! Automobile, Road and Track, Car and Driver..you're all missing something special by ignoring this beast. My previous were a GS400, BMW 545i, Panamera 4s (8cyl). I swear this car out accelerates the Porsche and handles better than the Lexus or Beemer w/sport pkg.. This Audi accelerates so effortlessly and uneventful it almost scares me. A locomotive that Edmunds claims does 0-60mph on 4.2. After 2500 miles, I'm finally gettin the guts to push it around corners. It sticks like glue. However you're so relaxed driving this vehicle it seems a shame to throw it around like the Porsche. Cmon car mags, spread the word. This beast is something very special.
