I have a little over 7k on mine and it's 13 months old. The car has been in the shop 3 times for 4 problems. Only major issue was replacing the flex plate.

19,000 miles -- purchased in December 2014. Two minor issues: popped out of first gear, and that was fixed by the dealer; annoying rattle that dealer cannot identify -- plan to return the car sometime in the winter when it's less of a daily driver. Nothing to complain about.

Rattles are only warrantied for 12 months... ideally if you had it in for that specific item before 12 months they'll still honor it, but they turned me away at 18 months for a bad roof squeak on my old Vette.

Over 1 year old & approx. 9,000 miles.

Had A8 trans re-flashed at the 500 mile oil change.

OH, and it keeps getting faster.

Thanks -- wasn't aware of that. I did have it in within a year after my purchase, so perhaps that will hold.
