Somehow, I stumbled across your channel. I love it. I have always loved Audi's styling but feared buying one because of the reported maintenance costs. I am not mechanically inclined and being older (63 yrs.) not interested in doing my own maintenance anymore. However, after watching your series of videos on the A8, I may reconsider purchasing an Audi. Maybe something a little newer. Thank you for the content. I subscribed and look forward to future content.

I appreciate these videos. I love how in depth you'll Went. with the a8l And how transparent it was. I feel like no one on KZfaq that I've seen has a video in the way you'll do on this vehicle. Watching yall's videos have given me the understanding now. Understanding now that I would like to have a a8l As well and experience it for myself as my Next vehicle. Thank you for these videos

You guys do pretty good detailed videos. If you wanted something a little less tame all you had to do was go up a few stages on the DS1. My DS1 stage 4 alpha 2013 S7 is an absolute beast.

@@PerformanceOnWheels Congrats on another great video, but I feel obliged to inform you that my S7 is a full one second quicker over the quarter, and I've done more mods since then. I've also taken the liberty of posting a link to you on my facecbook page, so be prepared for a huge jump in hits. 🤣. I think I'll put a link on the DynoSpectrum page too, because not many people get it as right as you do. My video is garbage compared to yours. I know that. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rrlintBj0tGzYKs.htmlsi=-or_yUvfV8NKxpWZ

Great experience getting this from Todd. The videos were super helpful in my decision. The torque is crazy on this A8, and it is more 'fun' mid-throttle. I've stood on it a few times from a dead stop and while rolling, and all four tires spin, which I haven't experienced in Audi's due to the Quattro. I feel like I lose a few seconds just spinning. I have to really stay disciplined to drive the speed limit. I tried all the modes and will agree that the Comfort mode is excellent and more chill. Dynamic is aggressive, which I like, but I have to race everyone. If I have passengers, they don't like getting their necks jerked while in Dynamic, Comfort seems to not thrust as strongly. Thinking of doing stage 2, but I want it to last for a long time and how much faster do I need to go?

Thanks for following up!! Super glad to hear it is treating you well. It is hard to fight off that power bug at times.

Thank you for your video. I have a plan to take 2015 D4 4.0. However I am worrying about the maintenance such as arms, air suspension, water pump and etc. I think if I can replace those parts, I can afford to take it, of course it must not be difficult because I am not a mechanic. Do you think the normal people like me can replace and maintain A8L?
@PerformanceOnWheels4 ай бұрын
I am for from an expert in the mechanic area. I however can typical figure stuff out. There is a lot going on in the Audi. I did dive I to the suspension and felt comfortable working on that. Water pump and thermostat are doable, but next level of challenge. The engine mount would be the most difficult common fault.

Show me an Audi owner who claims - outside of regular maintenance, it's reliable - and I'll show you a liar!
