I have a 2011 A5 couple 2.0T TFSI car for 9 years now. Other than the oil consumption issue, so far I have no problems yet. But I'm really nervous about it esp. with videos like yours and from the comments below. It's really good on gas, drive very smooth and have always been very reliable. The only reason I hung on to it for this long is because it's one of the most beautiful designed car I have ever seen. After 9 years, I'm still mesmerized by it's looks.

[@danielfl.9347]

That engine Can be problematic, but the car is the most beautiful one ever.

[@Topspeedcraft]

My 2011 A5 Sline coupé has just died today on gearbox issue 😢 oil consumption problem went for ~2 years and now it dumped the transmission

[@danielfl.9347]

@@Topspeedcraft Gearboxes are good on these cars. Only problems are the 2-gear CVT. Is that the one?

[@craigocharger4491]

I have owned a 2011 A5 TFSI Coupe since 2013, It's probably the best, most reliable car I've ever owned. I have never experienced any of the issues in the video. I guess you just got unlucky.

[@DailyDrivenCarss]

Which engine you have on your car?

[@ibcalm24]

Considering Audi had to settle a class action lawsuit. No Audi put out junk. Don't get me wrong(it worked for me), I'm rebuilding the engine in 2013 A5 convertible, I picked up for 2k.(in excellent condition)

[@prassler]

Same here, 2013 TFSI, no issues but great performance. He must have been unlucky.

[@Artmiri]

I had Audi A5 TDI 2.0 2013 model. Bought it used with 190000km on it. Start stop stopped working, but this was due to a wet/faulty cruise control sensor/radar (the one located in the front bumper that measures the distance of cars in front). When visited a garage, they said the sensor is completely gone and it would cost 4000 Euros to replace. I didn't replace it and kept driving like that until it started working again after it got dry on its own. Mind you it took about 3 months during summer heat until one day I just started the car and it started working. With that also the start/stop malfunction was gone. If you buy one, make sure the radar is not located in the front bumper as it may get wet and accumulate rust during rainy season. Poor design in the side of Audi really. Some Audis don't have it there so make sure of that.

[@DailyDrivenCarss]

Thanks for sharing your experience 💪🏼

[@Dramox.]

Hey just curious. Im thinking of getting my first car, being an A5 with the same km on it as yours. Is that a good buy? Has yours run into problems at all? I just love the looks of it and want to add 50000km of my own to it, then sell it again 😊

[@jayt9870]

Audi, VW are the best cars in the world, you just have to take good care of it and it won’t disappoint you. Cheers!

[@marisbre9314]

Why such beautiful car has to have so difficult electronic systems? After owning VW passat b6 1.9d 77kw and audi avant b6 1.9d 96kw which both were crazy money pits and in one case i even swapt engine, not counting all electronic failures etc. I'm simply afraid of vag cars. Switched to e46 3.0d 135kw, had 0 issues except fuel economy. Looking forward to something newer, but it seems like there is nothing better than e90 or e60.

so basically sensors are could fail just like any used car, time chain can get loose nothing serious if u fix it in time and high oil consumption what is known from the VW brands like VW and audi

[@wedfr1234]

TDI engine gearbox oil leaking. How do I get this repaired? Or does the gearbox need replacing. Timing belt replaced 2 weeks ago.

[@DailyDrivenCarss]

You need someone professional looking at where the leak is coming from

[@arzoahmadi5821]

The issue of the oil level is that also good for a 2013 Audi A5? What I mean is it program to show if the hood is open or not, or is it for the newest models?

[@DailyDrivenCarss]

If the hood is open then it will show on the dash. If it’s open and not showing on the dash then the sensor is faulty and will ask you to add oil. All B8 models have this issue

If you want A5. Buy the 2.0 TDI much more reliable than the petrol.

[@zureai]

there's a 2010 2.0T Quattro s line in manual. With a fully rebuilt engine with new internals and new turbo. It won't have oil consumption issues?

[@DailyDrivenCarss]

As long as the internal parts are upgraded according to Audi specifications. This was a common issue and Audi released new parts for upgrades to prevent the issue from happening again.

[@zureai]

@@DailyDrivenCarss Thanks! I will have to double check if they were upgraded or replaced with new OEMs lol

@@DailyDrivenCarss I'm guessing if it was just replaced with new OEM parts, the oil consumption would just happen again over time?

​@@DailyDrivenCarss Thank you for answering my comment, could you be so kind to give me an advice ?? I am about to buy a car in the range of 20-21k/euros. I came across two cars that I really liked, one is a 2016 - Audi A5 TFSI Multitronic quattro(230hp) coupé with 63,000 km on it, full options for 21k. The other one is a completly different car, 2018 Renault Clio RS - Automatic with parking camera. (200Hp) with only 24,500km on it. Both cars fully inspected in their respective brands with 1 year warranty. Which one would you go for ? I don't have any children and no debt.

[@blackwolf531]

Is the motor mount a major problem?

[@DailyDrivenCarss]

No

[@colinsimpson1766]

i mean come on lads, had an A6, V6 3.0 tsfi and usualy about once a year i would get the "add a litre of oil" message, instead of just panicking and pouring in a litre of oil, i would take it to the levelest bit of ground localy, swich the engine off, let the oil drain into the sump then dip it, every time except once i found that sure enough it needed some oil, now i dont know maybe audi has removed the dipstick so that sensible folk cant check for themselves, i'm surprised some one who works in or has experience of the motor trade would not recomend dipping first, but i digress, i'm just a thick welder with no car mechanicing experience what so ever🫢

[@DailyDrivenCarss]

Not everyone has the experience to be able to sort this issue out by themselves. Plus the add oil message is common issue with 2.0 tfsi engines so just adding oil wouldn’t sort out the issue, not so sure on the v6 TFSI. But good point, the levelest ground bit does help 😄

[@A-one_not_real]

I see a lot of negative things about the A5 is it really not a good car?

[@DailyDrivenCarss]

All cars have problems. If you find a good example with good maintenance history then it is a good car.

[@jayt9870]

A5 is one of the best cars. I always say, cars especially German cars are like women, when it shows a sign of problem, attend to it quickly and it won’t break down. Mine is at 190k Miles and it drives like brand new due to constant maintenance and servicing. Cheers

[@Gyrbae]

@@Qsblogs23 It's an oil consumption fault, and it will eventually ruin the engine. Essentially what you have to do is to remove the engine, take it apart, reseal absolutely everything and get new pistons and piston rings. It's a manufacturer oversight and that problem is prevelant in every 1.8 and 2.0 TFSI engines. It's a costly procedure (in my country it costs about 5000 euros to fix) but after that the engine runs like a top. Audi and VW both used these engines so it's a well known problem with these engines.
