Featured Replies

Hi,

 

I'm Raymond from Malaysia , i can't find any decent information on the Audi Q5 lucky i manage to find this forum from google.

 

Before i trigger my loan calculator for this car , i will like to understand on the cost of ownership for this vehicle. Audi Q5 yr 2009.

 

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 ...:)

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...

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.

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
