Brand spanking new? as in not a demo or anything? 

I think the bedding in for the normal pads and discs are about 1k miles. Seens as you posted this over a month ago i assume youve done some more miles - did it fix itself?

if not are you getting any feedback in the steering at all? or pulling? 

if you are, then id get it looked at but if not i think its a bedding in issue. Persevere as it should fix itself 🙂

Yeah, it was brand spanking new - 19 miles on the clock! I've now done about 1,400 miles and it has definitely eased off, but still occasionally noticeable. It's not having any other effect like feedback or pulling, so hopefully it is, as you say, just a bedding in issue! I had it in last week to look at another issue which was a clanking noise coming from the brake pedal when it was released (I'd posted this in another thread and someone said they had the same issue and got it fixed) - they admitted there was an issue and need a replacement part, so hopefully I'll get that fixed in the next week or two.

Other than that, it's running like a dream!

2. The electronic handbrake doesn't come on when I park the car and get out. Any way of having that happen automatically in case I forget ?

 

I'm afraid I don't know the answers to your question, but would like to hear what people say about this one as it's a bugbear of mine.

Awesome, thank you!

It looks like you have selected POI on the satnav. ( point of intrest) . 

Somewhere in map settings you will have option to tick/untick POI 

Ah cool, let me check this evening and fingers crossed there's something I can untick - thanks!

Great, thank you - I just assumed it was something that couldn't be fixed, but I'll report it and see what they say. I wonder if it's related to my squeaky brakes issue... Do you have any detail on what the technician said / reported so I could get a head start when I call them?

Hi - I've had a brand new Q5 for about a month now and I've done about 900 miles. Initially the breaks were squealing and I just assumed it was cause it was brand new, but it's still happening after 900 miles - is this normal? Should I get it seen to? Thanks in advance.

Hi

I got a new Q5 last month and I remember when I was playing with the MMI, I selected something to alert me when there was a coffee shop coming up (what can I say, I like coffee!). Now it's just a pain in the neck and I don't know how to turn it off - driving through a city centre it bleeps every few seconds - help! I can't find anything in map settings or connect settings but I'm sure there will be a menu option somewhere. Thanks in advance.

Hi - is that a noise when you remove your foot quickly from the brake pedal? I get the same thing!
