Used 2015 Audi Q7 SUV Consumer Reviews
LOVE the car, hate the gas mileage and maintenance
I got the Q7 Prestige supercharged 3.0T because I needed an 7 seater car. Love the car, fun to drive, well made, feels solid when driving. Has this weird vibration of steering intermittently when driving on freeway from 60-80 MPH. Took it in several times, they don't know what causes it. Says it is only on the Q7 model. Love all the upscale features: ambient lighting, and Love Love Love the Upgraded B and O stereo system with 19 speakers-so Awesome. I don't like that I had to buy 4 new tires ($1300 after 2 years and 3 months (21,000 miles), and may need a whole new set of brakes ($1500) before the lease is up in 7 months. They are squeaking and at 6mm. If there were less maintenance costly issues/upkeep and better gas mileage I might buy another. I owned a RX Lexus hybrid prior to this, better gas mileage and maintenance free for years!!!!

Don’t spill your coffee and other issues
Cup holder still located above Nav. electronics. A minor spill will short out the system....about a $1,000 repair. Use a real mug for all beverages. Gas cover no longer opens from inside. You must open the cover by pushing on it from the outside. In cold weather the cover freezes and is extremely hard to open. Who thought that was a good idea?

Ok car, but Ok at $50k doesn't make the cut
Where to begin with this car? The biggest problem is that the controls, for the most part, just make no sense. Let's take safety - all other modern vehicles with front sensors alert you when parking. With this car, you have to enable the feature (or go into reverse first) before the system becomes active. That's not just non-intuitive, but just downright dumb. As for the side assist, make a turn when a car is next to you and nothing will register. The side assist is only blind spot assist, and there are strict parameters where this function only works. This is junk - the truth in engineering is that you help the driver and take the risk out of driving by adding modern technology, not that you take technology and make it not work the way it should. Other controls are not intuitive either - from AC to the pain of having to use the wheel to enter an address for navigation. Interior looks nice, but functionality and design are fighting each other. Lexus and Infinity vehicles have much better fit and finish to them and are intuitive and easy to use.

2015 Audi Q7 - A pure driving pleasure
Pros: Real pleasure to drive, very quiet vehicle, roomy and spacious, luxury finish and classy interior. Very pleased with the overall performance, styling and technology features. Cons: Some items are smaller than competition - MMI screen, glove compartment, sun glass holder. Navigation is a little more complicated than the rest. Front camera not part of the parking assist package.

Repeat issues doesn’t make a repeat buyer
They particular year product was rushed out the door to make room for a new model. With that rushing there are serious issues such as brake durability, road handling, tire life, alignment and just rattles in general. All of this makes this purchase very poor. Audio and the dealership really don’t care about making is right they just want to buy time until you get out of warranty. We have had an alignment 5 times with the first 1 month after purchase. They last about 30 days max.
