Mine clocks out of the 10 year extended warranty in Augiust 2024, so it still needs to go in. I am holding out just in case turbos blow, though no sign of it. I do 5K oil cycles typically and use 504 spec oil rather than the more common older US sped 502 stuff.
As an aside, I think there is no 4.0T forum because al the rest of those forums are really from a bygone era of AW. Back when original founders were the key crew who maintained site. The AW changes were happening by the mid 4.2 (D3) era, and probably why you see that but then no 4.0T.
Consider 511 vs 504 to lower risk of carbon, if you run meth injection though it doesn't matter.
Hi all. Audi newbie here. I bought a 2014 A8L 4.0t a few weeks ago and found what I believe to be coking on the turbo. I was told the turbo oil filters had been changed no long ago. Please check out the pic and tell if I'm in trouble.
Had my D4 S8 about a month, and PCV went. Covered under warranty, so fully fixed. Now can someone please help me understand how I can blow the turbos before November so they're covered? I kid, I kid. But kind of not really joking.
