  • It's been one year since I purchased my SQ5. Let's discuss the issues, livability, complaints, and performance of it. Is the SQ5 the right car for you? Maybe so!

    To sync the climate control with the passenger you can just push and hold in the driver side knob for like 2 seconds. Much easier than through the MMI!

    Bought my SQ5 back in 2016 brand new, 113k miles and it's still going strong! Keep up with recommended maintenance and this thing is giving my accord a run for the money in cost!

      Have you ran into any real problems or complaints besides the panoramic sunroof?

      @BrunerTuner  Před 2 lety +1

      No major problems at all. Even the sunroof has been fine. My only issues were an oil level sensor that went bad

    • @BrunerTuner
      @BrunerTuner  Před 2 lety +3

      Ours has held up well, and has seen a fair amount of mileage. I'd say do a thorough inspection as with any car, but we'd feel safe recommending one!

  • @romankartsev220
    @romankartsev220 Před rokem +1

    Nice video bro. They don't make Sq5 with supercharger anymore only with turbo charger so reliability might be different with the turbo. And you said its only 1 year review. We will see what happens in 4 years from now once your warranty runs out.
