Coolant temperature: too high. (although coolant gauge is at 190)
Let engine run while vehicle is stationary.
Towed the car to Audi. They have had it over a week, but still are not sure what's what, but indicated that other Q8s have had a similar issue. They will replace the thermostat and hope that does it. That scares me as I take fairly long trips and don't want to get stuck.
Not what you'd expect from a $80,000+ vehicle. I haven't seen much on this topic on the internet.
