Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2018 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.
- Mild Hybrid BSG / Alternator FailureSerious
The 48V belt-starter-generator can fail due to moisture ingress or transistor overheating, disabling start-stop and eventually draining both 48V and 12V batteries.
- DPF Regeneration ProblemsModerate
The diesel Q5 FY can suffer DPF blockages on short trips, triggering limp mode and expensive forced regenerations or replacement.
