Problems:

Engine misfire
Misfires can be caused by ignition issues, fuel delivery problems, or engine timing issues. In V8 engines like the Audi RS 7, a misfire can lead to reduced performance and increased emissions.
Oil leaks
Common in high-performance engines, oil leaks can result from worn gaskets and seals. If not addressed, they can lead to significant engine damage.
Timing chain issues
The timing chain can stretch or wear out over time, leading to poor engine performance and potentially severe engine damage if it breaks.
Carbon buildup
Direct injection engines like the one in the Audi RS 7 are prone to carbon buildup on intake valves, which can cause rough idling, reduced performance, and increased fuel consumption.
Turbocharger problems
The turbochargers in high-performance models like the RS 7 can suffer from issues such as oil starvation, bearing wear, and boost leaks, leading to reduced power and efficiency.
Cooling system failures
High-performance engines generate a lot of heat, and any failure in the cooling system (e.g., radiator, water pump) can lead to overheating and engine damage.
Fuel injector issues
Faulty or clogged fuel injectors can cause poor fuel atomization, leading to rough running, poor performance, and increased emissions.
Emissions system failures
Given the strict emission standards, components like the catalytic converter, oxygen sensors, and EGR valve can fail over time, leading to increased emissions and potential compliance issues.
Transmission problems
The high torque and power output of the RS 7 can put a strain on the transmission, leading to issues such as slipping, rough shifting, or complete transmission failure.
Suspension wear
The RS 7's high-performance suspension components can wear out faster than those in standard vehicles, leading to a rough ride, poor handling, and increased tire wear.

Problems:

Oil consumption issues
Audi engines, especially V8s, are known for higher than average oil consumption, which can lead to frequent top-offs and potential engine damage if not monitored.
Timing chain tensioner failure
The timing chain tensioner in some Audi engines can fail prematurely, leading to timing issues which can cause severe engine damage if not addressed.
Carbon build-up
Direct injection engines, like the one in the Audi S8, are prone to carbon build-up on intake valves, which can lead to poor engine performance and reduced fuel efficiency.
Turbocharger problems
Turbocharged engines can sometimes experience issues with the turbocharger, such as oil leaks or failure of the turbo itself, leading to decreased performance or engine damage.
Electrical issues
Audis, including the S8, can have complex electrical systems that may suffer from failures or glitches, affecting various engine components and overall vehicle reliability.
Cooling system failures
Audi engines can sometimes experience problems with the cooling system, including water pump failures or coolant leaks, which can lead to overheating and engine damage.

Timing chain tensioner failure
The timing chain tensioner can fail, leading to timing chain slack, which can result in poor engine performance or even catastrophic engine damage if not addressed.
Oil consumption
Some Audi V8 engines are known for higher-than-normal oil consumption, which may require frequent top-ups and monitoring.
Electrical issues
Modern vehicles like the 2018 Audi RS 7 can suffer from various electrical problems, such as faulty sensors, wiring issues, or problems with the vehicle’s computer systems.
Fuel injector problems
High-performance engines often experience fuel injector issues, which can lead to poor fuel delivery, misfires, or even engine damage if not properly maintained.
Cooling system failures
The powerful engine may cause increased strain on the cooling system, leading to potential radiator, water pump, or thermostat failures.
Transmission problems
The high torque output can put stress on the transmission, potentially causing issues like slipping, rough shifting, or transmission failure.
Suspension wear
The performance-oriented suspension components may wear out faster, leading to issues such as poor handling, noises, or alignment problems.
Brake wear
The high-performance brake components, especially on a car with Dynamic Brake Support, may experience faster wear, requiring more frequent replacement of pads and rotors.
