Audi S8 engines, including the 2016 model, are known for higher than average oil consumption, which can lead to frequent top-offs between oil changes.

The timing chain tensioners in some Audi V8 engines can fail prematurely, causing a rattling noise at startup and potentially leading to severe engine damage if not addressed.

Direct injection engines like the one in the Audi S8 often suffer from carbon build-up on the intake valves, which can lead to rough idling, reduced performance, and poor fuel economy.

Audi engines, including the S8, can experience coolant leaks from various components such as the water pump, thermostat housing, or coolant hoses, leading to overheating if not properly maintained.

The twin-turbo configuration in the Audi S8 can lead to turbocharger failure or performance issues over time, often due to oil starvation or contamination.

The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve can fail, leading to various issues such as increased oil consumption, poor fuel economy, and rough engine performance.

The ignition coils in the Audi S8 can fail, leading to misfires, rough running, and reduced performance, often requiring replacement of the coils and spark plugs.

Direct injection engines can experience issues with fuel injectors getting clogged or failing, leading to misfires, reduced power, and poor fuel economy.

The engine mounts in the Audi S8 can wear out over time, causing increased vibration and noise, and potentially leading to further mechanical issues if not replaced.

Common issue in high-performance engines like the Audi S8. Can lead to engine damage if not addressed.

Direct injection engines are prone to carbon deposits on intake valves, which can affect performance.

Can cause significant engine damage if the timing chain skips or breaks.

Problems with the Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve can lead to increased oil consumption and engine performance issues.

Turbocharged engines can experience issues like turbo lag, failure, or oil leaks.

High-performance engines often deal with cooling system problems, such as radiator and water pump failures, leading to overheating.

Can cause misfires, poor fuel economy, and reduced engine performance.

Can lead to engine misfires, reduced performance, and increased emissions.

Can cause rough idling, poor fuel economy, and engine performance issues.

Can lead to rough running and increased emissions if the EGR valve gets clogged.
