Audi Q5 Change Vehicle

"We had to replace the brakes due to not cleaning the dust off the brakes regularly. I'm not sure that's a valid reason for the wear - they squeaked from day one. New set has not squeaked"

"After just 25k miles, we had to replace all brake pads AND rotors. This was an expensive shock. Audi claims that softer compounds used in rotors mean they wear faster. Nobody told us that we'd shell out $1600 on brakes after just over 2-years"

"In November 2014 I had to replace two worn rear brake rotors, and replace pads at all four corners. This occurred with only 25,500km on the car, which I consider premature wear. The cost was not covered by Audi's 4 year warranty, nor by their pre-pai"

"Pads (and rotors) seem to wear out prematurely. Defective Audi brake pads were installed by dealer, leading to squealing noise when coming to a stop. Pads were replaced by dealer, at no charge, after i made a complaint"

"The brakes squeak when applied. Dealer said its a common problem in Q 5 cars due to the composite material of brake pad (dusting). However, they confirmed and assured that the brakes are safe and in very good condition"

"Moon roof creaking. Fixed under warranty by dealer by replacing seals"

"sunroff squeaks"

"The sunroof sounded like there was a metal ball rolling around in there. The dealership told me this had happened on a few other Q5s and they fixed it under warranty"

"Sunroof knocking sound...very annoying"

"Rattles- suspension system. Squeaks- brakes when air temperature is cold. The noise was umbearable from the begining and it took several fixes, 4 years and many complaints untill Audi replaced the brakes with the newly designed for 2017 models"

"Oil consumption issue due to out of spec pistons/rings installed at factory, a known issue happening since at least 2007 model year, possibly earlier. Company was sued and settled on 2007 through 2011 model years, but no longer is covering the cost of this fix after last year or for 2012 models. The bill to repair to replace the pistons was $6,000.00"

"The vehicle didn't actually get an engine rebuild but requires one due to excessive oil consumption (> 1 liter per 1000 miles). We have the engine code CAEB that is known to have ring problems and increasing oil consumption over time"

"This 3.2 l V6 engine has a carbon build up issue in the cylinder head, valves and throttle body. The cylinder head and valves have been repaired and cleaned twice on warranty. The throttle body carbon build up was not covered on warranty"

"The turbo failed and had to be replaced at a cost of over $3000. There was no explanation given as to the reason the turbo failed"
