I have a 2021 District Green Q5e / tan interior and it has been a fantastic car for my use case. 55% City driving means little to no gas use with home charging. Lots of road trips too, it’s a fast highway cruiser. 50k miles so far.
Audi Q5 parts reviews
I can validate the Michelin cross climate twos on my Audi Q5 are phenomenal in the snow and very good and not loud on pavement.
Personal, pe un Q5 cu stage 1 la 230 de cai (si o conduita preventiva) nu am avut absolut nicio problema cu Michelin CrossClimate2 atat iarna cat si vara.
Don't have experience with RS models, but we've used Textar brand rotors and pads for our Q5 twice and they're fantastic. Textar is an OEM supplier to Audi. The last set lasted us 90k Km and the bite/behaviour was the same as the original brakes.
My Q5 with 75,000 miles on it developed a leak in the water pump area. Initially Audi denied there was a leak, so I took pictures and showed it to them. Then they diagnosed it with thermostat leak.
Hi guys, I have a 2019 Q5, and same thing 45k to 50k miles in audi says we have a hydraulic leak. Audi says it must be from a bad engine mount. I didn't fix it for $2k, and didn't have any issues. It's rubber to reduce the vibration. My engine doesn't rattle, or vibrate uncontrollably.
My car has the Goodyear assurance max now, a 2016 Q5. Tread is already at 6/32 after a few years.
Had a Q5 and it was a money pit. Oil Consumption got so bad I was putting in a quart every 400 miles.
What I did not know is that the Audi timing chains are *designed* to stretch. Yes you read that right. They stretch. They use both metallic *and* interlocking plastic components and will slowly over time reach a point where your timing is subtly off (and the sensors "designed" to warn you of this do NOT warn you soon enough). This, combined with my wife largely driving it like a grandma, slowly and silently destroyed my catalytic converter required a massive overhaul of both the exhaust system and timing chain, pulleys, etc.
The Matrix Design headlights on my 2024 Q5 are $5,520ea. Parts are insane these days.
