Transmission issue with Audi Q5?

Answered by CarsGuide 16 Oct 2015

The seven-speed DSG gearbox has been the subject of a recall by VW and Audi. There have been problems with the transmission ECU and the clutch packs in the gearbox itself. In some cases the ECU has been replaced, in others the whole gearbox has been replaced. I wouldn't panic about what might happen, if your Q5 is driving normally and not exhibiting any problems I would continue to drive it. If you are concerned about it consult your dealer.
