Common issues
Audi Q8
The 2019-2020 Audi Q8 55 TFSI mild-hybrid models can experience a 48V belt-driven starter-generator (BSG) fault that causes sudden loss of motive power, engine stalling, or an 'Electrical System: Fault' warning. This can lead to limp-home mode, an inability to restart, and in some cases the engine cutting out while driving. Owners may notice the start/stop system malfunctioning before the full failure occurs. This issue has also been reported in 2020-2021 model years through service campaigns.
Lamborghini Urus
A high-pressure fuel rail can crack and leak fuel into the engine bay, creating a fire risk, in 2019-2020 Urus models with the 4.0L twin-turbo V8. NHTSA recall 20V-416 covers about 4,100 U.S. vehicles, and the remedy is free replacement of the fuel rail. Inspection cues include a fuel odor near the engine bay or visible fuel seepage at the rail. Before purchase, run the VIN through NHTSA's recall lookup and confirm that this campaign was completed.
