It just hasn't been a good month for A8 ownership.
Three tyres with tread separation, a misfire ( it was a dirty MAF and hasn't repeated)
Aircon compressor refusing to work (it was a low battery and hasn't reoccurred)
The coolant leak is still an issue
but most of all, the bonnet cable snapped. I have to say, removing the box at the end of the cable and pitting my lumpen hands in a miniscule space to access the cables from the drivers side wheel well, was the MOST awful job yet.
The cable replacement is on its way, and for the moment a coathanger has been repurposed to do the job of pulling the bonnet releases.
But the car has been given a large wax and seal so it at least looks good.
