Have a 2015 Audi A8 4.0 with 89K miles. Currently do 4 days of 25 miles RT and one day of 200 miles RT.
Recently replaced front brakes and front bushings. New tires Michelin Pilot sport 4S last year. Have 120 K Audi warranty until November this year.
Turbo filter done last year. Any guesses as to how long before I start running into expensive repairs? Sell while still under warranty in November?

I have a 2015 A8 3.0 with 63k. Has been trouble free for most of the 9 years of ownership. I think mine will go another 100k or so. My plan is to keep it for another year and reassess. I would venture that with your turbo issue resolved you should be good for a while as well. I really want something else but the car still looks awesome and it drives perfectly.

Drive it until something major happens. If you are ok with the light to medium D4 maintenance, no better car ages like a fine wine then the Audi A8!

PS the used car market is low again on most models, so not a sellers market.

As Oberklasse said, this is the time to hold. Save the cash you can for bigger maintenance items down the line!

This car will age very gracefully and the 4.0 is a very stout motor. If you poke around the forums you'll see people with 150-200k+ mile examples running strong (and putting power down!).

I have no plans to sell my car any time soon, in fact I've been mentally parsing out my yearly mileage just to see where I'll fall in a few years. Even if I'm at 120,000 by the time I own the car outright, that's fine by me. These cars are built to last, if you can afford to hold on to it, don't let go.

Forgot to mention that the front radar module died and it is now 2 months ordered.
