Thank you so much for posting such an informative review of the Q5. I have been all over the internet trying to find something exactly like this before I buy the vehicle. Keep reviewing cars!!
I had a 2012 TDI Touareg that VW bought back. So I'm looking for a replacement and the Q5 right now is at the top of my list. I really liked your review, mainly because you have owned it for 8 months and you know what you are talking about. Great review, very helpful, thanks,
Thanks Kelvin. I had a 2004 Touareg in the past and loved it. I'm dissappointed to hear VW is going to discontinue the Touareg after this year! Having owned both I prefer the better agility, speed and gas mileage of the Q5 when you compare the two. The Touareg is more of a truck while the Q5 is more like a car. Good luck on your search!
That's an excellent detailed review.. I. Look fowards to picking mine up soon
Awesome car. Getting one myself as a backup car
In September of last year I purchased a dark gray 2015 Audi Q5 3.0T (at the time at about 43k miles) under CPO. Not only was at a great value, but its been incredibly capable as we have a toddler in a carseat, and the SUV profile means comparable storage, but easier access to the cargo than the sedan that it replaced. I agree with you that it feels like a car to drive (and although the Q7's third row and extra space would have been useful -- it felt less like a car to drive, and a bit closer to a small van). All in all, it really does feel truly to special to drive around and the supercharged V6 is truly awesome. My 2015 model looks very similar to yours (it's S-Line as well), only differences is I don't have drive select, nor do I get the flat-bottom on the steering wheel or the sport seats ... but I do get the merge assist, back-up camera and sensors: which is actually a must for me. Anyhow, pardon the long take but just sharing my experience: I absolutely love the Q5, and being my first Audi: I am very impressed. I watched several of your videos on the Q5 (which actually were part of the encouragement for me buying the Q5 -- so yeah: thanks!)
Glad you're enjoying the Q5. I keep wanting to sell it so I can try something new but its too much fun to drive!
@@DrivenCompanion apparently the 3.0T is the *exact same engine* as what's in the SQ5, perhaps after the CPO warranty passes I might consider a tune, as the engine is clearly designed to exceed 300 HP. Plus, I tend to hold on cars for awhile and this could be a good one to stick with for a good long while.
Yes, its a detuned version of the same engine. Would be a fun upgrade to try out.
@@ryanonsrc if you still have it how is it running still and did you end up tuning it?
Thx for sharing my friend, your video is covered pretty much everything I need to know about it, I’ll be ready to getting one today
I got myself one too, love this car look, inside and outside with details, I get allot attention and compliments.
hows the up keep of it?
Good morning Mike! I'm heading in to buy a 2014 Q5 3.0T Prestige today and your videos really helped me get excited for this car. I'll be looking at your oil change video in the future. Hope all is well. Thanks man!
Glad to help. You'll love the Q5!
@@DrivenCompanion yes I do love it! I even found a local Q5 owner who has a set of the rubber floor mats cheap! Very exciting!
How do I switch bluetooth devices when listening to music? If my wife hops in first, her iPhone is the source and vice versa. Do you remember how to quickly switch source? Or do I need to re-pair my phone?
would love to see a cold start by the exhaust and even a city drive to hear any of the engine/exhaust noise throughout a drive.
By far the most elegant interior Audi has ever made
Long story short, I ended up getting myself a Q5 with similar spec because of these videos. Keep up the good work man!
how is it going with the car what type of warranty do you have?
@@hilldynastyfitness3705 so i bought mine as a salvage title with an accident. I fixed it and been driving it for the last 7 months. I dont have any warranty on it and i dont plan on getting one. I have a family member that drives A6 with lots of miles on it and zero issues. These cars are reliable if you treat them right and dont do anything outrageous with them. I am pretty happy with my purchase and all my family/ friends who got to drive my car/ride in it are impressed. Its a huge jump for me compared to the RT Charger i had.
I highly encourage you to test drive one, they drive incredibly well and i think its well worth the price! I am obviously bias here so take it with a grain of salt!
@@adamshaaeli4979 Im glad this went well for you. does this apply to the 2.0 audi q5 the one im looking at has 131k miles? Thats what im about to go look at.
Amazing! see you soon when I get it as my first car :)
Hello Mike, Rick from Colorado and own a 2002 Audi A6, 2.7T just turning over 230K miles and really considering a change to the Q5 to keep Quatro and still have a car like handling and power. Are you still happy with your purchase? Any expensive repairs yet? Do you wish you had that upgraded sound system? Are you happy with the upgrade to 20" rims? Do you also wish you had the 2.0 Turbo vs. the 3.0T (supercharged)?
Bey yeah i have a friend of mine who just got a audi premium Q5 2013 used i think, the model that this video is showing, and she's worried about the repairs and cost on this vehicle with so many bells and all the functions on it. Just any tips of what would be the case of any of the feature buttons wearing out and most likely when?
Mike C - I have the same exact vehicle. I concur with all you said here and will add that one exceptional feature I like about this model is the responsiveness at high speed when interstate driving. I live in Northern Va and drive to Richmond frequently. That stretch of Interstate 95 is rated as one of the top 5 most dangerous stretches of Interstate in the US. When I need to get past the 18 wheelers and trucks towing trailers, I've got the pedal to do that. I've been thinking about the 2014 SQ5 Supercharged w/354 HP. I would be curious to know if you have considered that as well?
I would love an SQ5 but at the time I bought this they were too pricey. They've definitely come down a lot since then but I think my next Audi SUV may be an E-tron or a Q7 to get the 3rd row seat.
Thanks for the great review! I’m thinking about buying a used 2013 for my son.
Michelle Grenier lucky son
hope you did its a good car i enjoy it alot
hope you did its a good car i enjoy it alot
if you did it, does it eat oil like it’s often claimed to do?
I don't think you can retract the rear seats using the side levers in the trunk. It's only to drop them
nice review! this was really helpful. im actaully looking into a 2013 3.0t Q5 CPO at 56k miles at the Audi dealership, they are asking for 30k before tax. whats your take on that price?
I think thats pretty good given its CPO and probably comes with a good warranty.
Please make a video on the Infotainment system
I have a video that's more of a review when I first bought the car that goes over the infotainment system some but I would definitely be willing to add another. Keep your eyes out.
Hello thanks for this video did they solved the oil consumption? How its looks from your experience? I thinking about buy Q5 with this engine, any information I really appreciate.
I haven't had an issues with oil consumption on mine but i've certainly heard of similar complaints on various Audi's. If there is a bit of oil consumption you could always just top it off. I would definitely recommend this engine to anyone interested in some spirited driving!
All VWs and Audi’s burn some oil. No big deal and considered normal. Just change and check your oil and you’ll be good. These 3.0T motors are very reliable.
Wondering your opinion… I’m in the market for a vehicle and I’m looking at 2013 VW Touareg tdi 230,000 Km and a 2014 Audi Q5 tdi 260,000 Km both equally priced. I seen you have reviewed both vehicles… I was wondering if you chose one over the other which would it be?
Two very different vehicles even though they seems similar on the surface. I'd recommend driving both if you haven't. The Q5 has a much nicer drive and is smoother & sportier while the Touareg is more truck-like and will feel bigger to drive. I do think both options are among the nicest luxury SUVs you can buy...
Do you still own your q5?
Does it have rain sensing wipers?
Yes
Nothing like a german car going down the highway trying to decide between a q5 and a x3 arounf a 2015 model audi an a 2016 x3 (to miss the bmw timing chain problems)
My vote is for the Audi
this car burns 1qt of oil every 500 miles, called audi usa and they know and acknowledge the fact that is defected but they will only cover half of the problem if you willing to fix it.
districted manager told me that if it was me I would just continue adding oil.
never again Audi
I had the same issue when I first got mine and I've since learned that it seems to be a challenge to properly replace the oil pan drain plug after an oil change and it allows slow leakage. After chronic problems my Audi shop finally had to rethread with a bigger plug and the problem went away.
Your problem is the PCV system, it has plagued Audi for years. Audi no longer offers the Supercharger
I see one for 9000 is that good 60.000 miles
That sounds like a good deal for such low miles, assuming is has no mechanical issues and a clean title
@@DrivenCompanion 97000 miles to be exact $9, 995 for the car on carguru 2.0t
Ah you posted 60K last time. Still sounds like a good deal if its in good condition
@@DrivenCompanion yeah I posted 60,000 miles but that was the wrong car I went to carguru and search cars in my area and I found that Audi Q5 2.0T 9995 on carguru and thank you for replying back I really do appreciate that maybe in a couple months I can buy this car that's what I want to do
Man the 2013 a horrible year 😂😂😂
