The turbocharged 4.0L V8 with mild-hybrid assist is documented from maintenance through overhaul, and around it sit the systems that make this car demanding to work on: the adaptive chassis and suspension control hardware, the assistance sensor array, multi-zone climate and comfort systems, and a body electrical architecture dense enough that circuit-level wiring diagrams stop being a nicety and start being the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e4.0L V8 (DWKA) Turbocharged Mild Hybrid EV-Gas (MHEV)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrims\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBase Sedan 4-Door\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe engine code and trim naming above are carried forward from 2024, the most recent independently confirmed model year. Audi's erWin parts portal lists the S8 continuing into 2026, which is what confirms service data exists for the badge, so treat exact trim naming and output for 2026 as subject to confirmation against your car's build data.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKnown issues on the 2026 Audi S8.\u003c\/strong\u003e One recall is on federal record for this model year: NHTSA campaign 25V900000, covering a software error that can prevent the rearview camera image from displaying as intended. A rear image that does not appear reduces what the driver can see behind the car and puts the vehicle outside FMVSS 111 on rear visibility. Audi's remedy is a no-charge software update at the dealer, with owner notification letters mailed in January 2026. No complaints are logged with NHTSA for this model year. If a blank or slow rear view is reported, check the campaign status and the module's software state before condemning the camera itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rest of the coverage is what a car this complicated needs over a long life: maintenance schedules, fluid and lubricant specifications, torque tables and tightening sequences, driveline and brake overhaul, suspension work with ride-height and alignment values, body and interior trim removal, and guided fault-finding with measuring values for each control module.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FactoryManual","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888392810718,"sku":"AUDIS82026SRM","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/4113\/8910\/files\/9324110053598.png?v=1788104649","url":"https:\/\/factorymanual.com\/products\/2026-audi-s8-service-repair-manual","provider":"FactoryManual","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
