1990 Audi V8 Quattro Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Audi's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Audi V8 Quattro? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is.

Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Audi's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Audi V8 Quattro transmission fluid leak? Yes. Audi V8 Quattro transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.
