Default 2000/A8/92k - no major issues.
Minor issues - heavy downshift into 2nd when approaching a red light (when not in tip mode), mysterious hesitation in 2nd between 2700-3000 rpms (when in tip mode).
Fluid/filter changed when car was purchased at 80k miles.

Default 2001/A8L/86000 miles - fluid changed at 45,000 and 80,000
Torque converter lockup became slightly rough before the first fluid change.

Default 99 A8 74k
Thought I had a hint of the thump when I got the car with 68k. Very minor. FF change and never seen it again. One time thing.
