I leased the Q5 and it drove fine until it started to hesitate when I tried to accelerate quickly . When I brought it back for service the service manager said that it was the way the care is, and I couldn’t believe that....other than that the car works fine and it’s very reliable but the hesitation is a big problem that is very bothersome and need I say very dangerous ! I wouldn’t lease another Q5 just because of the hesitation problem which hasn’t been corrected !

No complaints, except the price. Everything about the car is over the top luxury and refinement. Bang & Olefson speakers, over the top. Tow capacity, amazing. Acceleration, more than sufficient.

Highly recommend, for 4 adults or teenager passengers. Back seat not adequate for 3 adults. Q7 better for large family. However we are a couple & love this vehicle. Road noise slightly higher than expected but ok.

This is my second Q5, I love the car so much I had to get another one, and we'll probably get a third after this one the car is so much fun the drive, is beautiful the interior is so well appointed and has everything you need to have a wonderful ride. The details are so nicely done the car is made so beautifully, everything fits so nicely together you can tell it's a German high-end car

Engine on back order! Be careful with buying used!

I purchased my 2016 Audi from Hendricks dealership in Hoover, Al march if this year. As soon as I got it I noticed it needed oil added pretty soon and often. I took it back to them but they couldn’t diagnose the problem. I had to take it to the dealership even though I had a warranty and they told me the engine needed to be replaced. This was very upsetting although they said the warranty would cover the cost. The he downside is that but is on back order and it’s been 7 months with another 4 more month estimated wait. Be ware that this is a common issue with this model! Also since I got it I’ve had to replace the side assist and battery with an additional out of pocket cost of almost a $1000 :(
