Why is Your 2003 S8’s Transmission So Important?

The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a tiny transmission issue can take a major toll on your car’s performance. Such problems aren’t hard to spot. Audi S8 transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. Let Audi S8 transmission problems linger and you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that your S8 isn’t working at all.

Questions About 2003 Audi S8’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Audi? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Audi? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your S8’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my S8's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Audi S8 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Audi. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Audi S8 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Audi S8 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Who does Audi S8 transmission repair? If you have a problem with your transmission system, don’t hesitate to visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Our expert technicians can diagnose and repair S8 transmission leaks and other issues. Schedule an appointment today!
  • Can I drive my Audi S8 with a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your S8 to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
