Coming Soon

Audi SQ5 FY (2nd Generation)

20182026 · FY · suv

Big engine change from the 8R — supercharger replaced with turbocharger. 3.0T TFSI V6 (DCBC) — 349 hp / 369 lb-ft. 8-speed Tiptronic. Quattro AWD. SQ5 Sportback (coupe-roof) added 2021. 2021 LCI brought MIB3 with center touchscreen, replacing rotary MMI.

Watch out: 3.0T turbocharged: timing chain tensioner on early cars (Audi extended some warranties), PCV diaphragm, intake-valve carbon. Sport differential on optioned cars: fluid service every 40k. The MIB3 center touchscreen has had software polish issues fixed via OTAs.

Full clubhouse — owner Garage Lineage, common problems, year-by-year notes, and product picks — is on the build list.
