2012 Audi A8 Quattro Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Audi A8 Quattro and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your A8 Quattro. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your A8 Quattro, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2012 Audi A8 Quattro!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Audi themselves. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your A8 Quattro perform better, keep you safer on the road, and prevent common 2012 Audi A8 Quattro problems.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2012 Audi A8 Quattro for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your A8 Quattro's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2012 Audi A8 Quattro? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Audi A8 Quattro battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Audi A8 Quattro won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can help your 2012 Audi A8 Quattro's engine run smoother.
