I just brought my 2016 RS A8 in for the shudder problem at 30K miles, had it bad. I'll post results in about a week or so. The service guy said no camaros serviced with the flush have returned, so I'm hopeful. He did say it is covered by the 5-yr powertrain warranty. He also noted that it will be serviced for a transmission turbine shaft service bulletin (not recall), news to me, no postcard notification?


Update: Had 3-way flush done on 4-2-19. It was interesting to watch as my dash cam activates at startup, so I could watch activity in shop and the test drive after service. Invoice ticket advised to drive at least 500 miles. It felt much better on the short ride home, but I'll do another update after I've driven it for 100 miles or so, and again after the recommended 500 miles.


2nd Update: I am now 500+ miles (4-18-19) after the triple flush "fix" and the A8 is shifting fine with virtually no shudder issues, so I am hopeful it will continue to operate smoothly.
