I owned a 2013 SQ5 from brand new until December 2023 in Australia. For the first 8 years of ownership it was a great car. I had it maintained from Audi and then aftermarket. In 2022 it fell off a massive maintenance cliff.
The entire front end suspension was replaced due to knocking, engine mounts redone and then had the front rotors and brakes done. I accepted the brakes but shocked about the suspension and engine mounts given that the car only had travelled 105,000 kms.
What worse was the come was that at the 8 year service Audi said there is a 'massive problem'. It turned out to be misting from the upper sump. My independent advisor said that it was there from the beginning but Audi failed to tell me. It was not apparent there was an oil leak and I never received a low oil warning.
From 8 years to the end, during winter it sporadically threw a P2006 error (Inlet runner jammed). A mechanic advised me this occured in winter only and it was fine in summer. It would have been resolved with a carbon port clean (walnuts).
The final death knell for me was when I was recommended to get a carbon clean and have the valley seals redone. That was going to cost me $2500, with Rego and Insurance coming up it was another $2500. Enough was enough and it was moved on.
Like a lot of UA-cam videos have regarding used luxury cars- When they get older and get sold onto people they cannot afford to maintain them when something goes 'Boom'.
After this terrible experience, I bought a Telsa 3 Performance. Time will tell if this is unkind to me or not.
at approx 2:45, the SQ5 in both petrol and TDI were 8 speed tiptronic/Auto, not S-Tronic
