5 COOL FEATURES OF MY 2018 AUDI Q5!

[@cb7762]

I have Audi Q5, my favourite features are dynamic LED lights, Audi logo lights after opening door, Gear lever, Paddle shifters, Car reminds you if you left the phone in car while you leave the car, of course the panoramic sunroof, the torque car has and the super powerful music system and top one is virtual cockpit.

[@valkushnir2523]

Thanks for this video, today I got 2020 Q5 for my wife, too much info for a first day at the dealership, I will come back to this video to learn new tech tricks!

[@vasileolteanu1484]

good choice or the best

[@ilfred6857]

Truly wonderful. Super comfortable to drive, especially with automatic transmission. Very right, when wearing flip-flops, remove them and drive them barefoot. Greater driving safety, and total feeling with the car. You are one of the few people who observe this rule.

[@GemmyDonCars]

+Crosley Start My wife was yelling at me the other day for doing that, but I said I couldn’t feel the pedal as well. I love doing that.

[@ilfred6857]

@@GemmyDonCars Driving barefoot is permitted by the highway code. Even in Italy, where I live. Even for me, it's important to feel the pedals totally, and for this reason, I drive barefoot almost always, except in the middle of winter, when it's too cold.

[@Breonaleonard]

Buying this car sometime next month! Your review has been helpful😇

[@GemmyDonCars]

Breona, that means so much to me. Thanks a lot.

[@Breonaleonard]

Update: I bought it 3 weeks ago! Soo in love😍 I will be an Audi customer forever lol

[@kinggomda7739]

Can you please let’s us know what’s the trim level of your Audi? And does that support sunroof?

[@GemmyDonCars]

@@kinggomda7739 Premium Plus and yes, huge sunroof.

[@cperkins172]

One quick observation and take it from a pro....the active rear turn signals are not there for "no purpose". the exterior lighting on your car was meticulously engineered not only to look "cool" but primarily to keep you "visible" to other drivers.

[@9bar7and9bar8]

Balli absolutely correct. The moving turn turn signals have been proven to grab our attention more than a simple flashing light which sometimes gets lost when other lights in the cluster are on. More and more manufacturers here in the UK are doing this. I never drive in flip flops either.

[@JustAGrl007]

Love the on dash GPS! And now that you showed it how fast the vehicle picks up. Looking to upgrade in the next year or so.

[@CrzyMav]

I just bought my Wife a 2018 Q5 Premium Plus, and We love it. It’s truly an amazing little SUV. I almost bought the BMW X5 but I’m really happy I went with the Q5. It’s a bitching little SUV...

[@ankit_jain]

Hey, I’m planning to buy the same. How are you liking it? Are these cars expensive to maintain?

[@jessicawinsky88]

I just got one q5 2018. Amazing. Now I am testing how reliable it is.. Because I always own Japanese cars in the past.

[@GemmyDonCars]

Year and a half and no troubles for me!

[@jubeikibagami1601]

You forgot to show how the navigation shows lane changes on the Virtual Cockpit once it's giving you directions. That is awesome. I got the quattro puddle lights installed aftermarket and they turn heads too. ;)

[@DrinaDayz]

very cool, glad you are still loving the Q5

[@GemmyDonCars]

Definitely am, Drina.

[@Increase315]

❤️❤️❤️ Navigation & Puddle Lights!

I had to watch your video because my brother just bought a used one same year and color. Do you still have yours?

[@GemmyDonCars]

Yep. Still love it.

[@capcitymediagroup831]

I just got one a few days ago and i love it

[@alper2007]

We have a 2019 prestige and mostly enjoy the car. After a recent snow, I attempted to use the headlight washers, but they did not work. I asked the dealership to check them out and they informed me that the washers are not available in US and Canada markets. Do you know if you have them? Also, did your virtual cockpit ever went black? Thanks.

[@GemmyDonCars]

No, haven’t ever had any issues with the Virtual Cockpit yet. I wonder why the Us doesn’t get them, kinda crazy.

[@timmiller1577]

Nice video, I am 6'2 250 and usually have the seats moved back to the maximum available. I was wondering if the back seats can fold down without impacting the position of the drivers seat.

[@baillargeonnmario345]

It does not fold down without changing the driver's seat position. Same thing for passenger's seat

[@ckeane63]

The rings or "puddle light" is not standard in a Premium Plus. Thanks for the video.

[@1nnova659]

Thanks. I now know where you live lol.

[@kaym7549]

5 years later, how has the reliability of the car been?

[@GemmyDonCars]

@@kaym7549 It’s been flawless. Not one problem. I’ve done 36k miles in that time.

[@mehdilushi7895]

Thanks I'm looking to buy q5 2018 👍

[@Eric_In_SF]

Puddle lights don’t have a purpose? Why do you think they call it a puddle light?

[@NewEra-ye3ck]

Is this Premium Plus package or Prestige package?

[@GemmyDonCars]

Premium Plus

[@jessicawinsky88]

Do we have to use premium gas for this car?

[@GemmyDonCars]

Yes

[@iamsurmeli]

Thanks for the video! Does it have an active lane assist (manipulating the steering wheel) and adaptive cruise control (keeping the distance with the car in front of you) ? I am really into 2018 q5 but 2020 non-luxury brands confuse me with those cool options...

[@GemmyDonCars]

This one does not have either and it’s a Premium Plus trim. The Prestige trim might, but I’m not positive.

[@iamsurmeli]

@@GemmyDonCars thanks for the quick reply!

[@Spread_love01]

@@iamsurmeli have prestige and yes does. Amongst other things.

[@jaredgonzalez8421]

What trims come with the gps on full screen like that ? Pls reply

[@GemmyDonCars]

I believe on Premium Plus and Prestige, gets the Virtual Cockpit.

[@dannytorrez1800]

the truck is very nice, the mantenace cost is the only down side. when takeing the audi to a independent shop not the dealer, can the cost be reasonable?

[@GemmyDonCars]

Not sure if I'll keep it long enough to find out. Any German car out of warranty might not be cheap.

[@deanthomollari4887]

Does this car have interior lighting

[@GemmyDonCars]

Do you mean ambient lighting? It does not. I really love it and I wish it had that, but not a deal breaker for us. Newer Audis and even older Q7s have it, but not this one.

[@bhzd17]

Cool video! Random question - how many miles are you guys getting on a full tank?

[@gerrymc55able]

On a run being sensible 43 Average on over 10000 miles I 38.3

@@gerrymc55able Thanks. I was looking more for a total number of miles achieved on a full tank of gas?

[@gerrymc55able]

The car will tell you that it will do 675 after i fill up but its more like 580 in reality

[@bhzd17]

@@gerrymc55able 580 miles is actually not bad. Is this mostly city or highway driving?

Soon, I'm gonna do a complete 'what's it like to drive' video of this car and I'll make sure I shut up in a few spots so you can hear the engine and shifting. I'll mention you, Randy.
