Care for your 2021 Audi Q8 to maintain its performance power. Follow Audi's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

Questions About 2021 Audi Q8

When you have drivetrain problems, you have driving problems. Check out our top 2021 Audi Q8 drivetrain Q&A below, and visit your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care with any drivetrain concerns.

  • How does Audi drivetrain maintenance help save money? Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.
  • How do I know if my Audi drivetrain is damaged? Hear noises toward the back of your Audi Q8? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.
  • How often will I need Audi Q8 differential service? Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car. At a minimum, we recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.
  • What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a Q8? The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Q8 can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.
  • Can you clear the Q8 check engine light on your own? While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Q8's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Q8.
  • How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my Q8? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Q8. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Q8.
  • Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my Q8? The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your Q8 is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels to move the vehicle forward. This system consists of several components, including the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
