Hi there,

I've just about to look at a S8 and was wondering about the weak points mentioned above, what are the symptoms of the power steering pump failing and the front suspension arm issues?

Many thanks for the help.
Not sure about power steering pump, but I did hear some weird sound from front when I drove through those big, fat speed bumps. Some people describe it as "S8 fart"...

If an S8 is tricky to find, what about the W12?

Must be better by 4 cylinders.... ;-)

Much harder to find, I'd say. Although there is one on eBay at the moment that doesn't have mega miles.
