Great car, poor quality engine

Audi knows this particular engine uses oil and won’t last 100k miles. Recall on previous year models not extended even if later years have same problem. How they avoid EPA is a mystery as the engine clearly burns oil, 1 qt per 200 miles. Spent $9000 on engine repair and rebuild. Otherwise, this is a great car, it will be my last Audi, I can’t own a car if the manufacturer won’t own glaring design flaw.

Passionate about my 2015 Audi Q5 TDI

An incredible car. Fast, athletic driving and great gas mileage. I could never understand America's focus on horse power. It's all about the torque really, and these diesels have torque in spades. It's like a miracle: unbelievably powerful and fast off the line, but over 30 mpg. Car is beautiful inside and out. don't hesitate to buy one of these, if you can get one.

High repair bills, oil consumption

Rarely less than $1,000 going in for regular maintenance. At 70k miles the suv started higher than normal oil consumption. After more cost & time in Audi service & adding oil every 800 miles, told it requires a $7,000 piston ring replacement to fix the problem or just continue adding oil as a cheaper alternative. This is our 4th Audi. We loved the brand. No more. This is my Last Audi.

2015 Audi Q5 - almost living the dream.

This has been a great vehicle. Virtually everything I could want in a car. However, a few small details keep it from being perfect. I have had 4 recalls on this SUV. The cargo space is somewhat limited with the 2nd row seats in use. So far the value has been good, but I'll know more when I trade it in. The technology falls a little short. Friends have a BMW 5 series and have heads up display which this SUV does not have.

YOU AUDI GET AN AUDI

I owned 5 Mercedes prior to purchasing my new Audi Q5, so was accustomed to German handling, ride and convenience. I was concerned about "trading down" to a 6-cylinder engine, having owned a MB ML55 AMG, far and away the best vehicle I'd ever owned. The Q5 is definitely a match, stride-for-stride, much to my surprise. My two first impressions in the vehicle were "fit and finish" in the interior and the sound system by Bang and Olafsen---they were my "deciders." Now, after 4 years of Audi ownership, I'd again cite the fit and finish, the sound system, but would add the quiet ride, the confidence I have in the vehicle, and the support I have received from the dealership's service department. Owning the Q5 has been a very positive experience. On the negative side of the ledger has been, of course, the tremendous depreciation, which I suppose is common to all highline vehicles. I experienced that with the Mercedes, and am so doing with the Q5, despite the excellent care it has received from both the dealership and me. Whether I get another Audi or something else depends on the deal when I go looking----lots of badges are good, but this has been a good experience. I have recommended Audi to a number of friends and have sold more than a couple to others.
