You can thank the $hithole CAFE garbage for these A8 issues as well, if it weren't for being forced to add AFM, these issues most likely would not even exist!

I called the Law Firm in South Florida bringing the class action
but it was too late to join since they filed in Dec 2018. They took my name and number in case they are allowed to add me later on in the process. I'm not sure it's even worth it since lawyers find ways to take all the money using fees and expenses. I would prefer GM just fix the problem using parts that work but I know that is unlikely to happen. |

I read the target is 22 MPG and the V6 can do 25 easy without the AFM. The V8's probably need the AFM to avoid the gas guzzler tax. I could be wrong though.. |

It is usually spread across a number of engines/vehicles since CAFE is an average across the board for all of GM as a company, basically a work around to be able to still builds high HP V8's...so the 2.0T uses it to help across the board. Same is true of pickups, why they can still build them. It is all a crock of $hit.

an off button accessible within the infotainment screen settings?? GM could have labeled it as "diagnostic mode" to hide it from the emissions police. |

Have Rear diff groan, took it in. Also had hints of shudder, once in a while.
"We have to replace it (differential), will take 3 weeks to get the parts, come get your car. Will take 3-4 days to replace it. We cannot do the A8 transmission fluid flush right now since you need the rear diff replaced." Has anyone had their rear diff replaced? Jeez, I thought it was a simple fluid change. |

My dealer had my car for 15 minuets before calling me to say that it’ll be a couple hours till the cars back on the road! Call your dealer and ask why the diff is getting replaced.

According to the service advisor, "its (the diff) destroyed". Jeez. I don't know how that's possible. Total mileage is ~17000 (I put 10k on it in the year I've owned it) .

No pics. I didn't think to ask. I'm not too mechanically inclined. He did say it's one of many he has seen. Some have lasted for less mileage than mine, according to him.
This is all very concerning. 5yr 60k is an important milestone |
