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.

Feels bigger than it looked & a precision machine
by webdeveloperguy from MPLS MN

Absolutely amazing interior. Quiet ride, and is exceptionally smooth. Driving feels so much more enjoyable in this thing. I sat in the back and I'm 5'11 with longer legs and did not feel cramped.
While there certainly is not a lot of storage space in the rear compared to a CRV i can live with that for better mileage and less weight.

Sweet car for the money. Nice overall feel.

This body style is meaner than the new RS5 design. I love the V8 and exhaust note. I wish some of the steering wheel controls where more intuitive. Radio for example...

Comfortable, fits family cargo needs with plenty of performance for my liking. As the ergonomics and technology continue to evolve, Audi continues to lead. But most importantly, he "ride" is superb.

Audi's Is Awesome!

If you have ever wanted an Audi now is your chance. This SQ5 now only provides sporting luxury but is cat quick like it's cousin the Carrera S Porsche. 0-60 in just under 4 seconds. If I didn't need a different vehicle I would never give it up!

Waiting for the right one to buy

Plenty of leg room for my 6 foot structure. Not too low to the ground like most sports cars and the ride was not completely stiff. Definitely, a possible daily driver. It would have been nice for Audi to add a remote starter, especially for the money.

Amazing value for German engineering
by Thomas V from Baldwin
March 14, 2019

Coming from a Mercedes C Class. The Audi’s ride, fit and finish and comfort are far better. I’m amazed at how smooth and quiet the ride is on this car. My Mercedes had a hard/harsh ride, with lots of loose rattles and squeaks. It was assembled in Alabama and could have been a Chevy. The Audi is built in Germany. I ordered it and had to wait 3 months for it to arrive. Huge difference in German built cars. Worth the wait.

I have never felt disappointed in the past four years I drove this car on my decision of buying this car. I always felt like a king whenever I drive it. People stop me in between the road or parking lots and compliment about the beauty of this car.

This is a lot of car for the money, especially when buying used. It simply does everything well, looks absolutely stunning and performs amazing. Never had a single problem with it either. I'm always amazed at the gas mileage, especially for a bigger 300+ HP car. I always average above 32mpg on the freeway.
