What to know about the A8 battery

An A8 has more electronics awake at any moment than most cars have in total, so it is unforgiving about battery quality. It wants a full-size AGM, registered correctly. On chauffeur-driven cars that idle with the cabin running, we see batteries worn out by cycling rather than by age.

Where is the battery on an Audi A8?

The A8 battery is under the luggage compartment floor, beneath the spare wheel area and a metal bracket held by four bolts. Some versions have a second, smaller auxiliary battery.

What our technicians watch for on the A8

  • Long idling with rear cabin systems on wears the battery quickly
  • D5 cars also have a 48V battery, which is a separate system
  • Some cars have an auxiliary battery, tested on the same visit

Signs your A8 battery is on its way out

  • Start-stop stops working or shows as unavailable
  • The engine turns over more slowly on the first start of the day
  • "Low battery" or "Electrical system" messages in the instrument cluster
  • MMI or interior lights switch off sooner than they used to
  • The battery is more than two UAE summers old

Audi A8 battery questions

Short answers. Anything else — WhatsApp us.

Does the A8 have two batteries?

Many do in some form. All have the main 12V AGM in the boot. D5 mild hybrids add a 48V lithium-ion battery, and some versions carry a small auxiliary battery. We test what is fitted and replace only the 12V units.

Is it safe to replace an A8 battery outside a workshop?

Yes, when it is done with a memory keeper and coded afterwards. That is how we do every one. The job needs space behind the car and about 45 minutes.

Where is the battery in my Audi?

It depends on the model. A3, Q2 and Q3 carry it in the engine bay. A4, A5, A6, A7, A8 and Q5 usually have it under the boot floor. The first Q7 has it under a front seat. Our technician will know before arriving.

Can you come to a basement or tower car park?

Yes. Most of our Dubai jobs are in basements and podium car parks. The technician carries the battery and tools in by hand if the van cannot enter. Tell security a service visit is coming.

How it works

    New battery coded to your Audi. You see the readings, pay by card, cash or Tabby, we take the old one.
