2011 Audi Q5 4dr SUV
turbocharged 211hp 2.0L I4 8-speed shiftable automatic AWD
| 32700 mi | After software update it's been clunking every time I first put it in drive or reverse. Dealer has been good and trying to figure it out. I'm confident they will as last firmware update fixed temporarily but then started again. |

Drive shaft replaced |
| 5000 mi | 3000 miles on odometer. Lost power to the wheels at 70mph on interstate. Transmission disengaged. Pulled over. Towed to dealer. 23 days to get parts. Bad axle and differential. Audi did not cover all of the rental replacement. |
