Used 2017 Audi Q7 3.0T Premium Plus quattro 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl S/C 8A) Consumer Reviews
Sports car in SUV
I have owned BMW sedans, GMC AND Chevrolet large SUV’s including Cadillac ESCALADES and Lexus RX and GX ...the folks who give this vehicle a negative review must be driving a different vehicle....this is without a doubt the most fun motor vehicle I have ever owned .
SUV shopping fatigue
We looked, drove : Mercedes , Volvo, Infinity, Acura: Test drive of the Q7 SOLD us on the quality, ride, quiet, workmanship of this impressive vehicle. I was worried about being "too big" , but drives & handles super. Would strongly recommend the 6CYL engine upgrade. The ride control/performance choices provide varied and even "fun" options. The graphics option of virtual dash well worth the extra dollars...Navigation visually is outstanding with large picture in front of drivers view & adjustable via steering wheel controls. Unfortunately the ease, ability to use navigation system overly complicated, frustrating and ends up i don't use it ...I use my phone. Such a waste of technology . Did they really have a focus group trying out the system? Not overly impressed with sound system , but BOSE upgrade pricy for sure...if you can afford it ...do it! Really like the panoramic large moon roof. All in all, and because of a "year end special deal" this Q7 was clear choice over the competition.

2017 Audi Q7
This car is a huge improvement from my previous 2014 Q7. Drives like a car, loaded with technology, and has a great interior with high quality finish. A little pricey, but so far very happy with the purchase.

In the shop 7 times for Sunroof/rattling issues
Poorly made, bad fit and finish in interior. Horrible rattling after only 1500 mi. God knows what this car will sound like a year from now. This car was rushed to market, not ready for primetime. If you do not mind a car that will rattle over every bump, then this is your car, But if that sort of thing bothers you?- RUN dont' buy

Two years in...
I have had the 3.0 premium plus for two years now- about 17k miles which have been mostly road trips of 2-8 hrs max. I love driving it on the open roads here in the southeast. Fun to drive: fast, comfortable, quiet and strong acceleration between 60-70 MPH - I call this aggressive defensive driving; like passing a couple of cars quickly to avoid a slow moving truck ahead - and it can be fun! 75-85 is a nice range for it. We travel regionally with three adult sized people and never use the third row, so space for luggage, sports equipment is fine for us. After two years have finally figured out electronics. We have not had the electrical or mechanical problems others have had, save one MMI reboot early on. I like the pre-sense basic and like the warning and lights on the mirror so I don’t know if I want HUD because it’s fun car to be engaged driving in. Cameras are good, but could be brighter. Space is limited with rear seats up, minimal storage space, annoying jack system, which we leave out most of the time - there is Audi care! Have updated maps when i am in my garage - Try going to the menu options and navigate through to the prompts to update. It may be using my phone data, but it does download without the Audi connect active. Minor brake noise and do not like limited tire replacement options. Goodyear RF 20” Tires likely won’t last more than 25k so this will be an expense. Only other issue is that i am larger and side bolsters could be a tiny bit wider. I am not cramped, but at 6-3 200lbs I liked the seats in the older models better. I do wish I ordered it with factory tow package though. Audi wants 2k for a tow package install when factory option was 550. I missed that! Overall because we have not had major issues, i absolutely love to drive this car and will be heartbroken if it starts to let me down with mechanical or electrical issues. Hopefully not, because Dealer is TUL and given past dealings doubt I would get good help.
