Used Audi Q5 for Sale in Escondido, CA

On September 18, 2018 (dawn) a signal turned up on my dashboard of my Q 7 that my right front light has a problem. I immediately checked it, but was not able to find a disfunction. The light seemed to be okay to me. Nevertheless, on September 19 I drove with my wife -before I intended to got to work to UCSD- to Audi San Diego to have the problem solved without advance notice. I assumed that the bulb needed to be changed and costs less than USD 50. After some irritations (long waiting period, approximate cost estimate not mentioned in advance) the paid amount of USD 483.65 was refunded by Audi San Diego which made me very happy. Wow! I am impressed by the claim management experienced by Audi San Diego, in particular of Mrs. Ingrid Knufman. This is extra ordinary and serves as a benchmark for other companies. Thank you very much!

The car runs great and even the base model comes with more features than other luxury cars. It has great safety reviews and great family vehicle.

Just wanted to express my thanks to Brett and Don, although I am not longer the proud owner of an Audi, as I have been since 1997, Brett has always been there in a pinch. In the end Brett's recommendation of Don Bragg to help us out of a situation couldn't have been more spot on. Just as it has always been at Audi of San Diego, Don treated us with kindness and consideration. Although I certainly miss my A6, the wife is happy and I avoided a 12 thousand dollar fix in the process. I do think Audi needs to look at this manufacturing and repair situation a bit deeper, when consider the cars of the world and the average cost to fix a timing issue, 12k is insane! Regardless I will always appreciate Brett for the kind and generous help and Don for closing up a less than happy situation with professionalism and compassion. Wife's happy, I'm good:-) Thanks for everything guys!

The Q5 meets all of my needs. It's very comfortable with beautiful detailing inside and out. The workmanship and quality of Audi speaks for itself! Great choice!

The last 3 cars I've bought I bought from Randall Blaum. But the last time I bought from Randall I did something I've NEVER done before. I bought my last new car from Randall without even going in to the dealership at all. Crazy? No. Let me explain... I trust him completely. And he's more than earned it. I am not easily pleased (something you're just about to find out). His product knowledge, outstanding customer service, efficiency, speed, honesty, upbeat mood, uncanny attention to details (and the best deals, too), plus his likability, MANNERS, and charisma are all TOPS as far as I'm concerned. All this and he has great grammar, too. Who knew! But here's the really important part... I hate buying cars, I hate going to dealerships. Why? For the same reasons I hate going to most retail businesses in America these days -- because there are far too many mediocre Americans merely putting in hours just for a paycheck (that includes many of you xxxxxx corporate suits, too, who don???t know how to sell, yourselves, much less TRAIN anyone how to sell) ??? many whom have either forgotten or never knew what it???s like to be a real, live, KIND human being with a heart who can THINK and BE NICE while BEING PRODUCTIVE AND PROFITABLE (remember when America did that? No? Keep reading...) while providing an outstanding AND MEMORABLE sales experience worth repeating every time I want to buy a car (I???ve bought 20+ NEW CARS in the last 16 years, so F you. LOL!). Yes, I'm passionate about with whom I'll spend my time and money, and more people should be... if you want "this land is your land, this land is my land" to be "great" again. But I???m not holding my breath about y???all while I continue to ENJOY BUYING CARS from Randall Blaum??? and driving a new car almost every year certainly helps me feel better (since we're all about our FEELINGS these days, riiiiight?) but finally finding an amazing HUMAN BEING who happens to sell in a HUMANE way is what is truly important here. You still paying attention you smart phone addicts? Almost done??? Randall is now my ???go to??? guy for cars. Period. My time and money and how I spend them and with whom are very IMPORTANT to me. Randall knows and respects that. Do you??? I wish more AMERICANS did. Randall gets my HIGHEST recommendation. I'll be his customer for life. And I'll tell all my friends. And I'll spread it on social media and review sites on the internet machine, too. LOL! Got that management? Good. America needs YOU to be great again. Because Randall is winning at it. Good day.

The car meets all my needs from a function standpoint plus it is fun to drive. It has great acceleration and body roll its negligible. Gas mileage is as advertised, which is exemplary for a car with this kind of performance. I was hesitant in buying a four cylinder engine in a vehicle of this size and weight, but the performance is so much better than the six cylinder I had in the Lexus RX350 that I had right before this car. One major plus for the Audi is it always seems to be in the right gear for accelerating from a start or on the highway. There is no lag in waiting for the transmission to shift or for the turbo to kick in. Plus there are so many ways to set the way the car for shifting, steering feedback and suspension that it is nearly impossible not to find the right setting for any given situation. Functionally, there is plenty of room for four full-sized people and luggage, boxes, golf clubs or whatever else you want to throw in the back. The only minus that I have noted so far is the lack of interior storage for small items. The glovebox is plenty big, but the console has very limited storage capacity and the doors do not have a very functional bins for storing anything larger than a sunglass case. The bin in the console is always open and the design needs some more thought. My car has the upgraded stereo, which eats up space under the floor in the rear hatch area.

Great staff! 😊 🌞 💖 🌞 🙆 I didn't realize I would be writing an essay. Lol.😊 Everyone in the Dealership is awesome. They are always so friendly and cheerful....except one grumpy one...but I think he means well. Hahahahaha.😊 😂 😂 😂 😂 Kidding.😊 Thanks Everyone!

I had the car I wanted transferred in and from start to end they kept me informed. The waiting period was a bit of a bummer, but knowing that my car was arriving made it worth the wait. Ryan was super he completed the transaction and put us in good hands. We had a minor defect with the windows but Ryan made sure it was taken care of . Overall we were quite pleased. We're definitely getting a second car with them . Lidia

Of all the German manufactures, Audi leads in style, performance, fit and finish. The Q5 is the standard that others need to follow. The very best.

This year we purchased an older model A3 and a new Q7! All of a sudden we are introduced to Audi and their service team. I have never been so impressed by a team since I've been a car owner! Damian has helped me with my Q7-new and didn't need any service except a new windshield and 10K service check-fast, efficient, communicative through the entire process! Brett helped us out with my daughters '09 A3-He took care of a recall while her car was in for service and we didn't even realize the recall parts had arrived!

Good so far. For a 4 cylinder it can generate a good bit of power when needed. My only complaint so far is that it has minimal storage. The console compartment is small and cannot be accessed unless the cup holder of cups is emptied!

I had my 2009 Audi TTS serviced on 9/17/2018 for the 75k manufacturer recommended service. All staff were exceptionally professional and courteous. A service consultant, Jerald Camacho, took the time to explain in detail the 75k service, and to answer numerous questions of mine, and to set me up with a lyft ride back home. While my car was undergoing service that day, another service consultant, George Gushulak, conveniently updated me via text and email about the status of the service, and estimates for additional services that I requested. Upon picking up my car, George went over in detail all the work that was performed, and answered some other general questions of mine. I left with a detailed safety/inspection report, my car fully serviced and maintained, and a thorough understanding of the overall condition of my car. The car was washed and cleaned, and everyone treated me and other customers as valued patrons. I will certainly return for future service and maintenance. John Valencia

The 2016/2017 models were the bulk of my test driving. Ended up buying the 2016 Q5 2.0 Premium Plus with ~25k miles on it. Handled like a dream, technology package is great, and gets pretty good mileage. Certified Pre-Owned is the way to go as you can get original warranty as well as the comfort knowing that the car has undergone all of the relevant inspections. Overall great car with good price and resale value.

Love this car. Sporty and smooth. Ride is great with power and off road capabilities when I need it. Looking forward to going off road and towing.

Came into the dealership after speaking on the phone with Anthony Pizocci about a CPO 2018 Q5 that was listed on the web. He promptly emailed me all the information and I came in the next day to look at the car. I purchased and drove off the lot the next afternoon. The transaction was seamless and everyone was very professional and efficient. Thank you very much. I just love my new car!!

Overall, it’s not a bad car. Let’s get to the nitty gritty: CONS: - Sun Shade of Panoramic Roof will break - Blower Fan for AC/Heat will corrode and break - AC compressor will fail - Cooling System will fail at water pump - Engine will leak oil - Parking Sensors on bumpers will fail - It doesn’t matter which year 3.2 Q5 you have. These things will happen if you own one. This is well documented and Audi will not cover out of warranty. - No Bluetooth Audio, only Phone Calling - Terrible GPS setup - Seat Memory only Positions itself if engine is off - Trunk cannot close remotely Now, the Pros: - Big Panoramic Roof!!!! - Incredible turning radius - Good power on freeway for passing - No Turbo = No Turbo Lag - Sport Mode wakes the car all the way up - QUATTRO will get you through almost any weather including 2 feet of snow - Parts interchangeable with other year/setup Q5s - Decent MPG (25Mpg on cruise control at 70mph) - Great Speaker system Sound - Nice Sounding Engine - Smooth and Quiet on freeway Overall, it’s fun to drive, powerful enough to get a thrill and a pretty solid car when everything is working. Just be prepared to shell out thousands of dollars should anything break.

Recently took my A3 in for a 45k service. I was immediately attended by a Service Greeter, who made sure i took all personal belongings needed before leaving the vehicle. Soon after, my service consultant, Nacho, met me at the car. Checked it in and got a loaner vehicle in about 10 minutes. All personnel were professional and courteous. I received a call from Nacho a few hours later indicating the car was finished, but the technician found a fault in one of the sensors that could be an issue later. Upon arriving my car was ready and cleaned. Nacho explained my options for taking care of the issue, so I could starting planning. Overall, service was quick, yet thorough. Audi SD personnel were attentive and provided quality service. Good job!

I have purchased three new Audi's during the past 2 1/2 years from Audi San Diego, the most recent car purchased was a 2018 Q5. They have the widest inventory, and the sales and service people are exceptional. My saleslady for the three cars was Natasha Fulton, the best, and Scott Kealy in service provides exceptional service. Highly recommend this dealership and the people I have mentioned.

Great vehicle, great value, great appearance. Just got back from a trip to the mountains, my Q5 performed beautifully. Can't wait to take another trip.

Very responsive internet sale department. Quick to respond with a phone call and to answer any questions I had.

What a great experience!!! Great car ,excellent price. My salesman is very knowledgeable and didn't try and upsell me on anything. Very refreshing. Come see Devon at Audi Escondido he's really a great guy ¿

It far exceeded my expectations for a replacement SUV for my Cadillac Escalade! It was the Premium SUV by Audi which offered a loaded package which had low mileage.

Had made appointments at 2 other dealers for a recall fix on my car but because of inconsistent answers from one dealer about cost and duration of appointment, cancelled them. Shortly thereafter, due to a different issue, I had my newly purchased 2015 Chrysler 200 towed to Bob Baker Chrysler (purchased somewhere else) to be looked at. Anthony, my service advisor, was above and beyond amazing. Even though he had calls and people needing his attention, he still treated me as though I was his priority and he took the time to go over everything I wanted to know and never once acted rushed or hurried (and he must have had a ton of customers wanting his attention too). He kept in contact with me throughout the next few days with updates and followed up afterwards as well. I wish I had bought my car there. But, now I know where I'll take it for service and where to send anyone wanting a new car. I wish more places treated their customers this way.

Quality car with amazing amount of technology. My insurance went down compared with a 2011 Buick! Quite economical too on gas. Recommend it for a family, safe transporting children.

Was surprised when I was told the high cost ($962.57) estimate of my routine service. Nacho is a good guy and make $1,000 bill not feel so bad.

This car met all of my needs and feels very luxurious to drive. I wish there was more storage room in the console and the drink holders are awkward with the console tray.

Audi San Diego has a great service team and nice atmosphere to wait in and UBER on standby to get you home , work or other locations. Good job Audi San Diego 👍🏼.

I really like how this vehicle drives so well, very smooth, responsive, and extremely comfortable drive. The exterior and exterior of the Q5 is beautiful. I do wish it had the touchscreen option however in this SUV with its infotainment system I don’t miss that option too much. The panoramic sunroof is a great feature. I definitely would recommend this vehicle to others.

I recently purchased my first Audi, a 2018 Audi A5 Cabriolet, through IJ Feinman with Audi San Diego. My entire car buying experience without question was the most exceptional I have ever had in purchasing a vehicle. IJ Feinman at Audi San Diego with his high integrity and care for his customers is how all salespeople in the car industry should be. Unfortunately, most of the time its not. His high level of professionalism and knowledge of cars, not just Audi products, but many other types of cars, is what made me purchase the Audi A5. He owns and drives two Audi???s himself! Having never purchased an Audi product, I had a million questions. IJ was able to patiently answer all of my questions, in an easy to understand manner. Once when I had a question on whether to pay additional money for an added feature on the car that IJ did not have any personal experience operating, he called the dealership general manager. The general manager was using the feature I was considering in his own Audi vehicle. The general manager was also very knowledgeable and friendly. Rather than tell me how great the system was, as most car salespeople would to get you to purchase it, he shared that he thought the system was something that I didn't need to purchase! IJ was truly more concerned that I find the right vehicle, with the packages and systems I was looking for, even if it meant a long delay in making a sale. I had such a great experience in the purchase of my first Audi, and working with IJ Feinman and Audi San Diego, that I decided to trade in another vehicle I have, and purchase an Audi Q7 from Audi San Diego and IJ Feinman, although I wasn't planning on doing so for another year. Customer loyalty and trust are both earned through deeds not good salesmanship alone. I feel confident that if I am ever in need again to purchase a vehicle, I would only buy an Audi and do it through Audi San Diego and IJ Feinman. Most sincerely, Bradford Bates

The vehicle had a very good price, unfortunately the sales person ( Z Mehdi) did not fulfill his commitment, will think twice before going again
