1999 Audi A8 Limo review from UK and Ireland
"I thought Audi's were reliable.!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The auto gearbox is a problem.
50% of the time the gearbox is OK.
For the other 50% it goes into limp home mode (3rd gear).
I have tried changing the oil and filter twice, but no luck.
General comments?
I would appreciate any advice on my gearbox.
Apart from this the car is wonderful. I get 29mpg which for a 4x4 V8 is outstanding.
