Did anyone own this car > 5 yr ? from other forum i see there are problem on gearbox which require to repair after 3-5 yr...is it true ? Is there any other issue for this age yr old car ? i & my wife like this car very much but if the cost of ownership is very high , we will not able to 'feed' it ...:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Hi Raymond welcome to the forum :) The Q5 is a nice car but as with any premium car it's worth having a bit of money aside in case of problems... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raykl Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 i'm looking for a 2.0 petrol engine hear it was a tiptronic gearbox. is there any know issue around ... can i further check , usually when you bought the car where will you go for maintenance ? is there possible to get the maintenance history ? the car which i saw with UK car plate and the mileage is around 60k with 2009 yr old...hardly believe it i suspect someone amend it.

James Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Yes usually service history is very important and can effect the value of the car. Full service history from a main dealer is normally most desirable, followed by an Audi specialist and then an independent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 There's definitely a few low mileage cars around but I guess it will depend on your budget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
