2012 AUDI Q5 Power Train Problems

Low oil pressure

Oil leaking excessively + low oil pressure.

AUDI Q5 TFSI 2.0T ENGINE UPPER TIMING COVER OIL LEAK, CAUSES WATER PUMP TO LEAK OVER AND OVER AGAIN. UNTIL YOU FIX THE OIL LEAK, YOU CANNOT FIX THE WATER PUMP LEAKING.

THE CAR WOULD NOT START WHEN I WENT TO PULL OUT OF GARAGE. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY. ON THE 8TH ATTEMPT IT STARTED AND I DRIVE IT TO WORK. IT FELT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL OUT WHEN I STOPPED OR SLOWED DOWN. I PUT THE KEY IN IGNITION IT WOULD GO ON BUT NOT START AND TURN OFF. THE EPC LIGHT WENT ON. THIS IS THE FIRST AND ONLY TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED HOWEVER IT STILL FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL OUT WHEN I AM IN PRO OR STOPPED AT A LIGHT OR WHEN I SLOW DOWN UNDER 10 MPH. I TOOK IT TO THE AUDI DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TIMING CHAIN WHICH IS A 2600.00 REPAIR.

I WAS DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED (~65 MPH) TODAY WHEN TRAFFIC QUICKLY CAME TO A STOP AND I BRAKE FAIRLY HARD. ABOUT WHEN THE CAR CAME TO A STOP, A "TPMS MALFUNCTION" (TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM) ERROR MESSAGE CAME ON THE DASH AND THE CAR COULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE, AS THE ENGINE WAS DISCONNECTED FROM THE TRANSMISSION. THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER WAS IN "DRIVE", BUT THE ENGINE WAS FREE-REVVING AS IF THE TRANSMISSION WAS IN "NEUTRAL". I SHIFTED TO "S" (SPORT) MODE - NO CHANGE. I SHIFTED TO "PARK" AND THEN BACK TO "DRIVE" - NO CHANGE. TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY HAD BEGUN MOVING AND I WAS STRANDED, BLOCKING TRAFFIC. AFTER ANOTHER ATTEMPT, I SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE AND TURNED IT BACK ON. AT THAT POINT, "DRIVE" ENGAGED PROPERLY AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE BACK HOME SAFELY. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN MAINTAINED PROPERLY AT ALL REGULARLY SCHEDULED SERVICE INTERVALS....
