Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2021 model year cars.
- NOx Sensor / AdBlue FaultsModerate
On diesel Q5s the SCR emissions system is fault-prone: NOx sensor or AdBlue pump failures trigger warning lights and, once the system counts down, a 'no engine restart' lockout that can leave the car unable to start after a journey.
- DPF Regeneration ProblemsModerate
The diesel Q5 FY can suffer DPF blockages on short trips, triggering limp mode and expensive forced regenerations or replacement.
- Suspension Control Arm Bush WearModerate
Front suspension bushes and control arms can wear prematurely, causing clunks and vague steering on UK roads.
