I’m hesitating between this and a macan S! Is this reliable?

My next Ride

Thoughts on 2022 q8 s line. Buy or not reliable

If this is the Audi 3.0 Turbo….then There are BIG problems with Oil Consumption with this engine going forward and Audi says that its not “Out of Spec” until you reach 1qt per 1000 miles (WTF?)…and they moved the timing chain to fhe rear (bell housing side) of the engine (again WTF?)…and they have the Plastic PCV valve located between the heads below the Turbo and it gets too hot and you get carbon deposits on the valve seats. Beautiful SUV…but its a maintenance beast waiting to happen.

trading my grand Cherokee to this in couple months, so exciting to see how this review turns out.

What's your thoughts 5 years later? Still have it? Have any issues?

Excellent explanation ! One question though. At 2:35 it's explained the ibox shows "top" to indicate the top. What if the ibox is installed up-side-down ? Won't it work ? Could you clarify please.

This video was so practical! Really very informative and easy going, thanks for the upload Mate.

It’s 2024 do you think the car is out dated? Comparable to the vehicles that are available right now

Firstly, thank you for sharing your wonderful experience, which we have benefited from, of course. I own the same car, model 2023, and I would like to ask you about the brakes, and I hope you will answer in all honesty. Do you hear the sound of the brakes during a complete stop, especially at traffic lights? Thank you very much.

My is 2019

Should I buy the extended maintenance?

Would you please share some experience.

Hi. How is your Audi Q8 now? I just bought 1 yesterday

San Carlos guy nice! I’m looking at the SQ8 rather any thoughts on upgrading?

Hi, I just had the select system installed in one of my showers in my newly built house. From day one, the water pressure has always been diabolical. So bad that we can’t even use it. When we asked the plumber, he blamed it on the overhead shower and said “unfortunately these type look fancy but the down side is that you don’t get pressure with them especially if installed upstairs “. Something didn’t sound right as we have a pressurised system and one would think it shouldn’t matter where the shower is installed as the pump will do the work? Side note: water pressure on bath tap and vanity unit faucet is brilliant and in the same room upstairs. Could it be that the plumber has made a mistake in installing this thing or has the water pressure been reduced? We have no legal restrictions for water in Ireland by the way. Thanks in advance

Thanks so much for the info. Do you consider two functions if i have a shower head and a bath tub spout? If it is, do i need a diverter? A tub spout comes with a diverter will do? I looked up on line for diverter. what is a difference between diverter and diverter valve? Do i need a diverter valve? Is there a diverter for two functions only? It is because the one in you illustration is a 3 way diverter (valve?).

Fuck the colors, did you had some problems?

Hi Cody, whats your feedback after 3 years of having it? Im planning to buy one and I want to know what to expect... engine, electronics, suspension, brake and tyre consumption? Thank you!

Isn't there a pressure balanced with volume control option?

Any Audi RS or performance model I’ve been told by many in some cases by experienced engineers at Audi is that you shouldn’t drive it in start stop mode.

You can turn off the start stop feature.

Here in Boulder they're EVERYWHERE

Can you have the interior illumination turn on as soon as you open the door when you unlock the car or do you have to start the car and then it kicks on?

I need one of these.

Excellent video

I just ordered a 2023 and I am excited. I have been watching every Q8 video on KZbin and love hearing everyone's experience. I've only seen one Q8 consistently in my neighborhood but it is an older model and darker color.

Hi. Regarding the Thermostatic Trim w. Volume Control and Diverter, what diverter position sends water out the top outlet, 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock? Thank you.

Back seats recline?? Thks. No review!!!

Q8 is nice if it is full of options and at least s-line or SQ8 or RSQ8 but this one is boring and cheap.

what is the maintenance cost like?

Hey ..I have a question, how do you turn on the doors ambient lighting? I have tried almost everything but the door lights does not turn on but rest works fine. Wondering if you know I have the same model

Hello there is this a premium, premium plus or prestige?

Awesome review

Is it Premium Plus or Prestige?

Would be nice if you could explain how to remove the operating handles and trim plate to get in and clean the cartridge i.e. maintenance

Nice car! Now driving an A6 but I ordered a Q8 60 TFSIe and looking forward to it! Just a remark: you say you can push the gear selector handle to the right to put it in sport mode, but that seems wrong. Pushing it to the right puts it in manual mode. Pulling it down puts it in Sport mode, alternating with Drive mode if you pull it down again.

I have the pressure balance1 setup, I would like to increase my GPM flow to the shower head. No laws restricting this in my state, but I cannot find the flow restrictor. It is not on my shower head so I assume it is in the ibox. Any help appreciated.

Great review !

Those indented buttons on the wall would be an SOB to keep clean… 😳

So I've got the pressure balance. Can't figure out how the service stops work. I assume left open right closed but they seem to just turn endlessly. What am I missing?

Never seen plastic buttons under the second screen and hand brake button .I got them aluminium which look much better and more expensive imo

I have a fully loaded 2022 Q3... I love Audi... this WILL be my next car!!! This is beautiful! Great video!!!

Hello Sir, can You please share the reliability after 3 years? Thank You

This guy said he has clients what are you a street walker

I'm not a plumber, but this video explains everything great. Excellent work!

Firstly, an excellent video. However I thought that I would share some of my experiences with you. I’m writing from London and have had a shower with Ibox installed for some 10 years. The Box that I have was not provided with isolation valves however these are easily enough installed as part of the supply tubing installation. I also have a pump installed dedicated to the shower. This is turned on automatically by sensing flow through the shower. The flow sensor is part of the pump assembly, a pretty standard arrangement. Lately however there has been a lengthening delay between turning on the shower and the pump starting. I eventually tracked the problem down to the non return valves that are installed behind the function block (not shown in this video). Changing these cured the problem. This was difficult to find since all of the symptoms pointed to a problem common to both hot and cold supplies such as the thermostatic valve or the pump. In fact the non return valve seals had deteriorated simultaneously on both supplies and while you might think that a failed seal would cause a leak, in this case it caused the valves to stick closed. Hope that this helps with someone having the same problem.

Excellent video and demo, I do have a question I'm hoping you can give me some advice on. I have the Puravida pressure balance trim 15407401 with a separate diverter and my shower heads have been leaking constantly the last few weeks but not my body jets. Should I replace my cartridge or any other way to test whats causing the leaks? Thanks in advance

Finally, a step by step explanation, thank you

Each time if you want to Change soimething on the touchpad - you to stop the car. More than stupid!!!!
