Loved this car model still own one to this day!

Love this car and model have owned 2 Q5’s reliable one of mine had 195,000 miles and still no check engine lights or major repairs had to be done on it. Can’t stress enough how much I love this car! I do wish though the premium model came with the backup camera and the lane assist but that’s only in the premium plus models.

Don’t buy

Don’t buy one of these vehicles. The timing chain let go and ended up cratering the engine. Burns oil like crazy. Endless repairs. Avoid this vehicle!!

Best car we’ve owned yet

My hubby is over 6 feet tall n struggles to fit into any car comfortably, until we found the q5. He loves it. We live in an extreme Colorado environment in the mountains, snow, ice, rain, we’ve got it. And steep mountain roads with lots of curves. It’s effortless on the extreme stuff and we love it

Best highway car I have ever driven

I really enjoyed this ride. Comfortable seating that fits 6 foot 3 inch people, It offers great sound system with CD and Sirius radio capability. Excellent driver vision allowing you to see more of what is in front of you. Car safety features is comforting and the Q5 handles extremely well in all weather conditions s. The V-6 gives it extra power for quick acceleration.

Don't Buy

This model is smaller than the A8. And it's suppose to be a SUV? There is basically NO room in this vehicle and it drives very hard. I was and still am totally dissatisfied and disappointed in this model. I strongly advise everyone to pass on buying any Audi Q5.

Loved it until the motor blew in only 5 weeks

I loved everything about it until the motor blew in less than 2 months. Now I constantly worry it will break down on me again & I wish I had never bought it.

Great car

Very comfortable and economic car, one of the best SUV I owned in this category, turbo charge makes it even more fun, panoramic sunroof is another beautiful thing
