hi Trevor thanks for your reply I was not very sure Today while driviving the oil alarm came up and the display was telling me to refill the oil completely as it was on the minimum and needed to be topped up immediately the strange thing is that I had serviced my Q5 just 48 hours before I have taken it to the service dealer for advice and they could not find any leak whatsoever they drain the oil and find it was all there but the sensor [situated near the bonnet lock] kept saying it was empty ??!! the technician disconnected the sensor and in 2 days I must go back to replace this sensor I hope is not going to be expensive what do you advice me to do?

hi Trevor thanks for your reply I am not sure if it was a failure or not the cambelt was replaced and also the water pump the car was in excellent conditions but may be for the heavy traffic conditions mixed with the fierce heat I had to replace water on regular basis one more question is the Audu Q5 a 4 wd?

Hi All My name is steve I am a chemist live in South Africa and drive Audi from 2004 I am new in this forum and I would like to ask the more experienced member few questions or opinions about the Audi Q5 which I have bought second hand in December 2016 this vehicles is a 2.0 lts TDI form 2010 and had already done 120000 kms I had a bad experience with my previous Audi 4 station wagon 2.0 tdi 2005 model when the engine head broke after 200000 kms I bought then the Q 5 which seems ok but I feel some how uncertain if it could do the same thing or been better in quality and reliability what I would like to ask is this 1-Is the Q 5 2010 better or improved quality than 2.0TDI Audi from 2005 ? 2-My Q 5 is already done 120000 kms how many more can I reasonably expect to do before I have to do serious repairs or decide to sell it ? 3- what is your general impression of this vehicle ? thanks for your reply
