One year is long, one year is turbulent. This applies to all areas of life, of course also to all experiences and events around your beloved motorized kit. But did you really love it all year round? Or did there be problems and annoyances with your vehicle or the manufacturer’s service in 2012? As in previous years, we would like to know from you how satisfied you were with your Audi in 2012. Even if the year has not yet come, we would like to know from you how happy you were with your Audi. As you certainly know, we have a direct connection to most vehicle manufacturers. It’s also no secret that almost every manufacturer reads along on MOTOR-TALK anyway. That’s why this survey is also a great opportunity for you to give direct feedback to Audi. They are happy about praise – and they are grateful for constructive criticism. Tell us in the survey and as a comment how your personal car year 2012 was with your Audi!

Hello, I currently have a Q3 40 TFSI quattro with a mileage of 105,000 km. Now problems start on the sliding roof and the air conditioning system. I am now thinking about switching to a hybrid and have the Cupra Formentor in view. Before I only work in all details, I wanted to know in principle whether these two vehicles are comparable from the standard and the class or whether one compares from the quality apples with pears. For the Audi I would still have about 21000 Eu ro get…. Greetings

Yesterday I landed in an easily avoidable 4 hour traffic jam. Only then did I find that no traffic data is loaded via the Connect services. There was no error message but just the nice hint when clicking on the button that there are no traffic problems. When it was too late then I looked at Google Maps and found myself in a 16 km traffic jam Also then I noticed that no information about the traffic flow was displayed. I don’t have to explain here how pissed-off I’ve been. That these Connect services are constantly failing is one thing, but that you don’t even get a fault message is just to despair when something like this happens.Thank you Audi for the dirty afternoon!!!

Topic: Audi Q5 Sportback – Repainting & Factory Warranty Hello, I am interested in an Audi Q5 Sportback, which I found on the official Audi used car page. The vehicle is available at an Audi dealer (no Audi directly) and still has a new car warranty until 18.03.2025. However, the description says: “Repainting is possible as part of the preparation process”. Now I ask myself: How critical do you think this is? Could it be harmless beauty corrections? n act or should I rather have a paint layer measurement done? Price and so on is good Edit: 40k for the car Looking forward to your opinions!

Good evening, I am currently unsure what to do exactly. I bought an A5, EZ 09/23 a few weeks ago. A service was carried out here before delivery (no hander/workshop from the VAG Group) However, this service is refused to enter into the Digital Service Edition, which, to my knowledge, should be possible via the Audi erWin Portal. I am only told over and over again that they cannot and only Audi can do this. Even an Audi employee has already confirmed to me that this is not true and that other workshops/dealers can also make these registrations. However, since I would have liked to register the service already in the digital service booklet I wanted to do it myself. As far as I know, I have to register as a company customer for this. For me, however, the question now arises, what exactly should I enter here. Is this checked in some way or another? can I simply enter my name etc. in “Company”? Has someone already done this here and can help me there? LG Jonas

Good evening together, I’m currently facing an enigmatic problem on my SQ5 and I’m rather perplexed. I’ve already tried different approaches without finding a solution to the problem. I’m from the specialist myself and hope for a helpful tip here…. So far I’ve done the following work on the vehicle: – Exchange of all temperature sensors in the cooling system, including the sensors in front of the cooler, on the exhaust gas recirculation valve (AGR) and the temperature sensor or at the driver’s side at the front of the engine block. – Renewal of the water pump and thermostat including the oil filter housing. (The thermostat is additionally electrically controlled by a heating element.) – Replacement of the thermostat at the gearbox. – Replacement of the known control valve located at the top of the V of the engine below the AGR and the oil cooler. The problem occurs when the vehicle has reached operating temperature. r after about 2-3 minutes to 75 degrees. However, as soon as I reduce the speed and drive at about 100 km/h, the temperature rises again to the normal value of 90 degrees. Does any of you have an idea what might be the cause or a suggestion for a possible defect? Thank you in advance and best regards Jannik
