Sat here thinking about the A8 I hardly drive and the bits that's wrong with it.
This line of thinking makes me doubt keeping it but I want to keep it. So I'm going to make a list of stuff that needs fixing, bits I want to add/remove and sell.

Gives me something to aim for and hopefully puts it in to a manageable list and not seem to daunting.

Broken and fix repair list:
Head lights- 501 bulb over heated. Melted the plastic and broke off inside. Possibly issue with drivers side light due to RTI.

Boot soft close motor- snapped teeth in motor. Needs replacing.

Drivers wing- dented, pushed in and missing paint due to RTI.

Front Bumper- missing paint and damaged due to RTI.

2 door handles- lock buttons not working. Front passenger. Rear drivers.

2 door handles- unlock sensors not working. Drivers front door. Passenger rear door.

2 doors- soft close not working. Front drivers. Rear drivers.

AC- possibly a pump.

Sunroof- refuses to close from fully open. Only closes with a helping hand.

Front passengers brake pads- warning light keeps coming on when turning left.

Steer wheel- squeeks when turning.

Rear lights- failing LEDs.

Passenger rear floor heaters- not working.

Drivers electric window- making a grinding noise. Like the metal cables are going to snap.

Rear brake discs- needs replacing.


Wants:

AMI.

Reversing Camera.

Larger rear brakes.

US Style front end with W12 grill.

S8 LED headlights.

Solar Sun roof.

Aux heater with parking pump and remote.

20" alloys.
