Hi all - I want to try changing the sensor myself after watching the brilliant video earlier!

 

I see these sensors going got as little as £11 now on eBay. Is there any difference between the ones at 50, or £11? They look the same and have the same model code: 5Q 0906207
 

Maybe some are A and some are B and aren’t stated, but would it really make a difference? 
 

I was told by the Audi Assist chap that the B indicated the revised/updated version of the sensor. Definitely the one you want in my opinion. 

Hi Foxy. 

The whole situation is a disgrace and needs exposed. I hope it works out for you. You aren’t still with Audi Assist by any chance?

Hello, I’m new to this forum.  I only discovered it yesterday after searching for a solution when both the brake servo restricted and stop/start warnings came on. I was hugely impressed with the amount of information and advice here. 
I have a late 2018 Q5 S Line. 
Armed with this info, I contacted my local dealership who made a preliminary booking for the 29 April but recommended that I phone Audi Assist who would get my car seen far quicker if they could not resolve the matter at my home.  I did this and they were out within an hour. The technician said his last job had been for exactly the same issue and he had used his last spare sensor for that. He confirmed the diagnosis and went away to collect a new sensor which he said had a different letter code in front of the number which indicated it was updated. He was back in an hour and fitted it. Job done.  Excellent service. 
 

Thank everyone for your help.
