Excessive Engine Oil Consumption. Audi Corp is attempting to rebuild the engine vs replacement leading to increased customer risk and downtime. My SQ8 has been in the shop for 250 days due to serval rebuild attempts with the dealer requesting a new engine and Audi denying forcing the rebuild even after several failed attempts. Vehicle will abruptly apply full force braking- Without waring or other vehicles nearby our 2022 Audi SQ8 will apply the brakes to a full stop. This has almost caused a major accident for me and my wife on several occurrences.

Water pump failure at 52,000 miles. Many other reporting same issue. Previous model years covered in a recall. This 2022 is not but should be with all the same complaints out there.

These vehicles are equipped with an automatic start/stop feature to save gas. This feature automatically turns off the engine when stopped at lights, traffic, etc. the problem is that once you apply the accelerator, it can take up to ~5 seconds for the vehicle to start moving and depending on how hard you depress the pedal, the vehicle can start very abruptly accelerating (almost to the point of whiplash). The most dangerous use of this system is when trying to turn left against oncoming traffic. If there is heavy traffic and a smaller gap in traffic, the delay in acceleration could lead to a collision. In fact I would be surprised if this hasn’t caused many accidents especially with less experienced drivers behind the wheel.
