Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and a thorough mech
Focus on verifying that the 2023 advisories were addressed. Specifically, ask for receipts confirming the replacement of the offside front drive shaft joint CV boot, as this is a known failure point for this model. You should also check the current condition and brand of the tyres, as all four were flagged as cracking or perishing in early 2023.
Ensure the service history is comprehensive, particularly regarding oil changes for the 1984cc petrol engine. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, check for any evidence of oil leaks or timing chain noise during a cold start, as these are common considerations for petrol engines of this era.
As a 2.0L petrol SUV from 2011, fuel economy will be modest compared to modern equivalents. Road tax will be based on the CO2 emissions for a 2011 petrol model, which typically places it in a mid-to-high tax band.
Insurance for the Q5 generally falls into a moderate group, though this will vary by driver. Maintenance costs for a premium brand like Audi can be higher, particularly for parts like suspension components and brakes, which are common failure points for this model.
Inspect the offside front drive shaft area for any signs of grease leaks, which would indicate the CV boot was not replaced following the 2023 advisory. Check the brake pedal feel and look for evidence of new rear brake linings to ensure the 2023 wear issue was resolved.
Referencing the model's aggregate data, pay close attention to the suspension arms for any play or perished bushings. Finally, check the operation of the windscreen washers, as these are listed as a top failure reason for this model across the wider fleet.
This blue 2011 Audi Q5 2.0 petrol has covered 118,561 miles, which is slightly below the model average. The MOT history shows a consistent testing pattern with one minor failure for headlamp aim in 2025. However, a 2023 test highlighted several wear-and-tear issues, including a severely deteriorated CV boot and thinning brake linings.
The Q5 has a general MOT pass rate of 87%, with drive shaft joints and suspension arms being frequent points of failure.
