Engine light is constantly on. Fuel system malfunctions and very expensive ignition coil/ spark plug repairs are always the issue. The engine light comes on while the car is in motion when the fuel system malfunctions. The engine light comes on shortly after the car is turned on when it's the ignition coils/ spark plugs. When the ignition coils/ spark plugs are the issue, the car shakes.
My vehicle went to the audi fife dealership. Advised I needed a new engine. I tried to trade in the vehicle and I was advised that my car had -0-trade in value. They wouldn't accept on a trade-in. They said it was worthless. I towed the vehicle home and I noticed on my paperwork that the dealership completed "3" recalls without my permission or knowledge. I asked service why they completed these recalls on a worthless vehicle that I had to tow home. A vehicle the dealership didn't want. I found out that this dealership is collecting over $14,000 for recalls that I didn't authorize on a vehicle that they said was worthless. I can't even verify if the dealership actually did the recalls. This is an unethical practice for this dealership to tell me my vehicle is worthless without an engine; won't accept on a trade; towed my vehicle home but they collect $14,000.

We were transferred from chicago to germany at the end of 2014 and as the audi recall for the airbag and fuel flange were now available we scheduled the vehicle for service on 11/12 jan 2017. The dealer had the recalls in the system and printed them out as a service order for repair. On 12th january the dealer called and said audi ag would not authorize the repairs. I called again today 13 feb 2017 and the dealers service representative daniel carr said they would not authorize and that the dealer has no way of ordering the parts without audi ag and that I should contact an american dealership in the us.
Takata recall after 10 months of receiving a recall notice, the takata replacement bags are still not available from fromaudi dealer. I also received a recall in november regarding fuel pump flange -- after calling my dealer several times, I am told replacement offered by recall notice is not available, may not be for several months - this is fire hazard. Audi leaves me to drive a vehicle with 2 serious defects, which they know about, and make no effort to deal with the recall or offer me a replacement vehicle. How can this be accepted?
Takata recall.. Nothing... Has happened, and I have been notified of this issue by audi.. But wanted to record that nothing has need done. There is also a fuel pump flange recall that has not been addressed. No issues at this time.

Takata recall and fuel pump flange remedy not available in timely manner
Takata recall: when will these be available? It is extremely disconcerting driving around with a possibly faulty airbag that could kill me if deployed! Also there is some recall about my fuel line? Seems pretty dangerous and yet it says no remedy available. This isn't helpful.
The indoor odor of the car smelled strong of gas. The area around or under the car was completely dry. The smell was prevalent while moving or parked. The gas tank was dry at the nozzle. I drive my family in the car, including my grandchildren. I was concerned for our safety so had my local mechanic evaluate. They discovered a pin hole leak in the fuel pump under the rear seat and gas was all over the gas tank. Any spark would have set the car in flames and possible explosion given the location of the leak. This repair cost $1131. This obvious flaw should be identified by audi and a recall should be in place to replace this defective part.
I purchased vehicle july 2015 after 1 month I would smell gas fumes over time it became aggressively strong I took vehicle in for servicing where I was told they didnt find anything...1month later took it back demanded they fix it I had to contact corporate found out they had to replace fuel pump & gasket in tank...in addition, oil consumption is an issue which is still a big problem. From 10/14/15 to 7/4/2016 the oil indicator asking for 1 quart. This serms to be happening 1x month. The service tech.inforned me there was a recall regarding this & my vehicle may not have been serviced for this. Im not a person who drives long distance or highway I travel to work and occassional errands nonetheless this is a nuisance not to mention the financial obligation. Why am I paying so much for a luxury vehicle that I dont enjoy.
My q5 had over the last 4 weeks a funky gasoline smell on the interior /exterior of the vehicle while parked or driven.my concern raised when I have seen my fuel consumption going up, so I had it checked by my local mechanic. He found that the cover of the pump assembly was cracking the top part of the fuel pump canister and gasoline is sitting in the assembly.so the smell interior and exterior is coming forth cracked fuel assembly. I had no accident or impact to the car that could cost this problem and reached out to audi USA to hopefully adress this issue . In the meanwhile I'm not driving the car since it is a fire hazard and could blow up in front of me.see picture attached
Transmission often jerks when slowing down below 10 MPH, car jerks forward
My car (2011 audi q5) engine abruptly shut down at low speed twice on the same day, once at a stop sign and second time while backing out of the garage. About 2 weeks ago, the car stopped while trying to pull out of a parking lot at speed of about 10 MPH or less. Fuel tank was more than half full and battery is good too. Car is less than 3 years old with service date starting may 2011. Vagcom analysis when connecting the car obdi port to my laptop indicates fault codes 4732, 4735 among several others relating to misfiring cylinders and faults in the fuel pump circuit/electronics. A cursory search on the internet indicates several such incidents with many other car owners where the car had to be towed to the dealership service department to get it fixed. This is a dangerous situation in which car can come to stop in the middle of the road and I hope audi takes leadership in proactively solving this problem before a serious accident/injury happens to someone.
Crank sensor failure and and fuel pump failure.
