Both my 2011 and my 2012 Q5 had this issue. Most of the loaner cars we had during our ownership experience that had a 6 speed transmission, also had this issue. They also exhibited this trait when...

Q5 Accessories For Sale

That happened in both the Q5s I've owned. Every little adjustment to the rearview mirror and bingo, the wipers turn on.

My point was that they update the website and configurator all the time, and it is still not accurate! Not even close in some regards. Have you checked with a dealership and the actual order system?...

One has to take the Audi website with a grain of salt. To this day, I still cannot build the exact car that I have on order, an order for which I have a commission number. The Audi customer service...

What I find irritating is that the only way to get the extra leather in the car, i.e. door pulls, dash, and full seat coverings, is to go comfort, which eliminates any option of sports seats. Having...

I know it's not a Q5, but our 2011 A4 2.0T didn't burn oil at any significant rate until it hit roughly 20k miles, and then all of a sudden it was plowing through one and a half quarts every 1200...

Around where I live, one cannot drive two blocks from their house without seeing ten Audis, several of which will be a Q5. I've noticed the divide is pretty much 50/50 between male and female...

Same here with the 2013 A8L loaner I have right now. It's a 3.0T and there is a button on the dash to turn it off. Unlike the radio, it will stay off after the car is turned off, and turned back on!
