2014 Q5 Order Tracking Thread
#21
AudiWorld Super User
Stopped by the local dealer today, and got some good news. My salesman said that I should have a VIN for my Q in the next week or two. Also the SM said the expected delivery of the first gas powered Q's has been moved up. He originally thought they would be getting their first shipment towards the latter half of July, now he thinks it will be the early part of the month.
Said mine will be one of the first delivered. Asked about pricing, and was told it's coming very soon, perhaps next week. The excitement level is rising.

Do you know if the commission number has anything to do with order of production? I placed my order on 4/18 and received a vehicle assigned status with comm# F67655

I hope I'm right there with you, but my dealer seems to be clueless about when it might start production. I do have 2 of their first 2014 models entered into the ordering system, but they have no idea if being an SQ5 order means delayed production or not. When you say gas powered Q's production being move up, I wonder if that includes the SQ5 as well.

Since you have a commission number, your vehicle has been released for production. It will be in the factory que, and you should have a VIN and build date soon.
My dealer said the gas engine Q's will get first priority including the SQ5, and unless you have an exclusive color your order should come along with the Q's. He also thought the TDI's would be a few weeks later.

Pretty sure there's people towing on 2.0Ts, though I'm sure the TDI would be one of the simpler engines to do it with. At the same time, you can always deal with that particular shortcoming if you ever got anything to tow. No sense in trying to plan for every possible case up front.

What did it cost to do a euro delivery option? and how does that work? Does Audi help with providing lodging or are you on your own for that?

ED gives you flat pricing on the vehicle (3-5% off depending on vehicle, not sure where the Q5 falls).

Got a call from my SM today. Not good news. He now tells me that the 2014's with the S-line package are not coming in late July. Said there is a delay with production for those orders, and no timeframe for delivery. Does anyone know what could be causing the delay? I don't see anything on the AOA website.

I hate that Audi is shooting itself right out of the gate on 14 models with some options.
Seems like the problems always revolve around the titanium and sline wheel options & trim.
