Our A8 has warm weather package, therefore, all windows are double for heat isolation, and because of this, none of the GPS receiver works in the car. We had to install an external GPS antenna for our portable Garmin.

We never noticed about the headrests NOT moving up/down although we can hear the motor running when we press the switch. This is how we fixed ours, they do move up/down for many years now.
Headrest Fix Procedure: This is the way I fixed mine, use it at your own risks...

One of the causes of clunking suspension on the A8 is the lower curve arm, this one will cause the noise when going over bump slowly, backing out of the drive way. This is how we fixed ours.

When our A8 hit 100k miles, the suspension start making clunking noise, one of the cause was from a tie rod end, at least what we thought it was since the rubber boot was torn, this is how we replaced it.

Most old Audis have the CC working intermittenly, our 98 A8 also has the problem, we haven't had time to check into it since we don't use it so often. We accumulated all the links to websites that we stumbled into for our references.
