I bought a 2021 Q5 and have had nothing but problems since day 1. Audi Connect didn’t work for 6 months. Then Drive Assist thru 2 wheels into a ditch. You have to connect each time you get in the car. You have to select audio each time. Car Play doesn’t stay connected. Today it hard breaked when I tried to backup w/ no obstacles. Recall. Trading this vehicle asap.

Bought the car on 3 days ago and have to take it to the dealership because the SOS light is blinking red from day one. I did not notice that. And there is no user profile setting option to connect o audi connect.. this is the worst experience with a new car that too after spending over 50K out of pocket.

I already have an Audi A5 which I love, but it’s not a practical travel companion, so I bought a 2021 Q5 for long trips. Unfortunately on the first 8 hour long road trip I regretted the decision. The seats are so firm that I had low back and hip pain. So much so it was enough that I took Tylenol when I arrived at my destination. Around town I don’t have this issue (meaning it was not obvious on the test drive). By far this is my biggest issue, and it’s enough that despite having only owned it 3 months, I’ll be trading it in before next summer. Other issues is the cargo space is limited. I had to insert my standard suitcase on its side because the hatch wouldn’t close when inserting length-wise. The tech is good although a bit glitchy. I sometimes I have to reconnect my phone to it several times. Apparently an issue audi is aware of. Also I have found that the Audi pre-sense FCW is very sensitive. On a positive note, I got an impressive 32 mpg on the hwy which is more than the epa rating, and the suv is pretty nimble and responsive fir it’s class. It’s also super quite on the inside.
