Audi Q7 problems
The Audi Q7 is a crossover SUV made by the German manufacturer Audi, unveiled in September 2005 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Production of this seven-seater SUV began in the autumn of 2005 at the Volkswagen Bratislava Plant in Bratislava, Slovakia.
The Q7 was the first SUV sold by Audi and went on sale in 2006. Later, Audi's second SUV, the Q5, was unveiled as a 2009 model. Audi has since unveiled a third SUV model, the Q3, which went on sale in the third quarter of 2011, and a fourth SUV model, the Q2, which went on sale in November 2016. The Q7 shares a Volkswagen Group MLB platform and chassis with the Bentley Bentayga, Lamborghini Urus, Porsche Cayenne and the Volkswagen Touareg.
The Q7 is the second largest vehicle from Audi, after its exterior size was being surpassed by the Q6 since 2022. While the Q7 has been the flagship SUV in Audi's product portfolio, a top-of-the-line model with a lower roof, called the Audi Q8, was released in 2018.
It was one of the vehicles involved in the Volkswagen emissions scandal, with the company ordered to buy back some of the affected cars manufactured between 2009 and 2012. The Q7 is also subject to hundreds of NTSB complaints with many relating to potentially catastrophic engine failure issues, and a class-action lawsuit related to squealing brakes.

Common Audi Q7 problems
The Audi Q7, a luxury midsize SUV, has been in production since 2005 and is known for its advanced technology and spacious interior. However, like any vehicle, the Audi Q7 can experience common problems. This article will discuss some of the most frequently reported issues with the Audi Q7, focusing on electrical problems, engine oil consumption, turbocharger issues, transmission problems, and brake pedal pulsing.
- Electrical Issues: Electrical problems in the Audi Q7 can manifest as issues with lighting, infotainment systems, or power windows. These issues can be frustrating and affect the overall driving experience. They are often marked by the check engine light. When facing electrical problems, consult a qualified technician experienced with Audi’s complex electrical systems. Regular maintenance can help prevent these issues by identifying and addressing potential problems early.
- Engine Oil Consumption: Oil leaks are a common concern among Audi Q7 owners. They are often the result of gasket failures, issues with the oil filter housing, or valve cover gaskets. You would often notice a popping noise from the engine bay near the intake manifold when there’s low oil. Always keep track of your last oil change. Solution: Address oil leaks by having the gaskets and seals inspected and replaced as necessary. Regular oil changes with high-quality oil can help maintain gasket health and prevent leaks.
- Turbocharger Problems: Some Q7 models equipped with turbochargers may experience issues, such as reduced performance and unusual noises. Solution: Preventing turbocharger problems involves using high-quality oil, adhering to recommended maintenance intervals, and regular inspection of the turbocharger for signs of wear.
- Transmission Issues: Transmission problems in the Audi Q7 can manifest as rough shifting, slipping, or delayed engagement. These issues can be caused by various factors, including worn clutch plates, low transmission fluid, or faulty solenoids. Solution: Address transmission issues by having the transmission inspected and serviced as necessary. Regular maintenance, including transmission fluid changes, can help prevent these issues.
- Brake Pedal Pulsing: The brake pedal pulsing when you push down on it can be caused by worn or damaged front brake discs. This issue is more commonly reported in the Audi Q7. Solution: Replace the worn or damaged brake discs and check the brake pads for excessive wear.
Regular maintenance and timely resolution of these issues are essential to ensure a satisfying ownership experience with the Audi Q7. Staying ahead of maintenance is key to preserving the joy of owning an Audi Q7.

- Summary: We were driving down the expressway when the car began to vibrate. We pulled over and had lights on the dash. We had it towed to a dealership where it was diagnosed as a burnt valve and ruined motor. I believe a new Audi engine quote was around $26,000. We took very good care of this car. This is a common issue and will become more common as these engines fail.

- Components: TIRES
- Summary: Yokohama Parada Spec-x tire, R275/45/R20 tread separation from belt. Second tire to do so since the start of 2024. Had to buy another brand name and tire after second tire separated from belts on 07/03/2024, causing me to spend $983.59 on new tires. There definitely something wrong with this line of Yokohama tires.
Audi Q7 2011
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-05
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-18
- VIN: WA1WMBFE0BD
- Components: FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: The Bosch CP4 High Pressure Fuel Pump failed suddenly at interstate speed (65-70mph) as I was driving up a hill in 3 lanes of traffic. The car stalled immediately and lost all motive power. I had to limp across 3 lanes of traffic to get to the shoulder right away, risking collision from passing vehicles. I could provide the damaged pump for inspection if needed. It's a common failure of the CP4 design, disintegrating and pushing tiny metal shards throughout the fuel system including injectors. The CP4 has been recalled on many vehicles previously. The problem has been diagnosed by the Audi dealership and confirmed the Bosch CP4 pump failed and destroyed the entire fuel system. The car has been dealership maintained since new and had no warning signs of failure, or lights. It was running perfectly prior to this incident. Because of the location of the incident there was a 5 hour delay in roadside assistance, in which my family sat on the side of the road.

Audi Q7 2017
- Date Of Incident: 2024-08-02
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-16
- VIN: WA1LAAF76HD
- Components: EXTERIOR LIGHTING
- Summary: There is an existing recall for certain Audi Q7 front side marker lights (Audi recall campaign 97CB, NHTSA campaign ID 16V642000) but this recall is too narrow. It does not include my vehicle but I have the same problem. Many other Q7 owners do as well. The Audi dealership will not honor repair or replacement, not even under warranty. The only way to fix this problem according to Audi is to purchase a new light assembly for over $6,000. Please expand the existing recall to cover all impacted owners.

Audi Q7 2019
- Date Of Incident: 2023-10-13
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-14
- VIN: WA1VAAF7XKD
- Components: SUSPENSION
- Summary: Rear coil springs broke after just 60,000 miles. Audi refused to cover but dealer said this is very common. Vehicle stability affected. After my 42 years in automotive industry as a supplier my bet is these springs are made in China and supplier is cheating on material specifications and Audi must know.
Audi Q7 2019
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-09
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-11
- VIN: WA1AHAF71KD
- Components: SUSPENSION
- Summary: On October 9, I brought my 2019 Audi Q7 with approximately 79k miles to my dealership service department for an oil change and an inspection sticker. While in for the service, the dealership performed a multi-point inspection. During the inspection, the service technician found that both rear coils were broken off of the base. The technician recommended that these be replaced immediately and need immediate attention. The cost of the repair is over $3,000 and would then require an alignment and calibration, costing an additional over $500. I understand that these coils were recalled in later model Audi Q7's but not my year. Based upon this, it seems that the coils are defective and there should be additional recalls. There really is no reason for coils to break on a car that has such a large towing capacity (though I don't tow anything on the car and don't have a tow hitch). This is a safety issue for the car's performance and control.
Audi Q7 2017
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-10
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-10
- VIN: WA1LABF79HD

- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-04
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-05
- VIN: WA1VAAF70HD
- Components: EXTERIOR LIGHTING
- Summary: My 7 year old car now display the below error and Audi says it will cost $6000 to fix this. $6K to fix a broken light is unacceptable especially because it is a known issue. Audi recall campaign 97CB (NHTSA campaign ID 16V642000) addresses this exact issue.
Audi Q7 2017
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-02
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-04
- VIN: WA1LAAF72HD
- Components: EXTERIOR LIGHTING
- Summary: My 2017 Audi Q7 is reporting a "front right side marker light defective" message. This happened after the car was brought into the dealer. The light is functional according to the dealer and visual inspection but I was told this is a nuisance error message. The dealer said even though it is working fine, I can pay $4,000 to have the light replaced to make the message go away. Or the other option is to just live with it, which means when it does go out I won't know that it has failed. This seems like a defective part that should be recalled.
Audi Q7 2017
- Date Of Incident: 2024-08-14
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-01
- VIN: WA1LAAF74HD
- Components: EXTERIOR LIGHTING
- Summary: I keep getting a "Front right side marker light defective." error. There is nothing wrong with the lamp but Audi wants to charge $4,000 to fix. This appears to be happening to other Q7 owners so I am reporting.

- Date Complaint: 2024-09-26
- VIN: WA1VAAF74HD

The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 111,000.

Vehicle year: 2017
I recently replaced my 2011 Q7 S-Line with 100,000 miles with the new 2017 model. I was initially apprehensive about buying another Q7 due to my previous frustrations with the user interface to the navigation/entertainment (MMI) system and the poor keyless entry system on my 2011 model. However, after test driving the 2017 and comparing it to my previous vehicle, I was pleasantly surprised to find that most of my concerns had been addressed and improved upon in the 2017 model. I decided to factory order another Q7 with all the features I wanted, except for the driver assistance package and the Bang & Olufsen sound system. As someone who drives 120+ miles every day, I prioritize driver comfort, safety features, and ease of use on all features. The 2017 Q7 excels in all these areas. It is extremely quiet, with no road noise from the tires, and the engine responsiveness is still exceptional. I am also pleasantly surprised by the gas mileage, averaging around 25MPG at average driving speeds of around 75MPH. This is a significant improvement from my 2011 model, which got about 20MPG. The user interface to the entertainment/navigation system is much easier and more configurable, and the heads up indication of speed, cruise control speed setting, and navigational turns is excellent. I particularly appreciate the ability to utilize the map on the driver's dash display. Although the keyless entry system is still a bit bizarre and has some built-in safety features that can be frustrating, overall, I am very happy with my purchase of the 2017 Q7.Although I have had some trouble with the keyless entry and hands-free tailgate opening, I must say that the seating comfort with the luxury package is excellent and highly configurable. The longevity of the tires and brakes is also impressive, with 6-7 mm of tread remaining on the original factory Eagle Sport runflats and minimal wear on the original brake pads after 53,000 miles. The OEM tires have been great in all weather conditions, which is especially important in Wisconsin. While there are a few minor issues with the vehicle, overall I am very happy with it and enjoy my daily drive.

This is our first Audi. After owning Mercedes and BMW’s before, my wife needed some extra seats for shared school duty this year. I almost bought a BMW X7 but couldn't get over it being a brand new platform getting bad reliability marks. Also, it was just a little too big for daily run-around. Next, we considered upgrading her Mercedes to a new GLE. We needed the AMG Exterior (such a better look than chrome trim), the V6/450 variant and 3rd row option. It was challenging to find inventory and ultimately driving up the price over the competition. The MB ride is also just so soft. We looked at Volvo, trying for something different this time. Unfortunately, we were unimpressed with the manual cabin functions, seats were too firm, no USB ports and we weren't impressed with T6 4-cylinder engine. We did not dig for a T8 - which I’m sure would have been a fun drive - because of the other drawbacks. Not sure why it took so long for me to review Audi but by the time I did, it was literally like a ‘greatest hits’ of everything I’d seen in the market. The drive is thrilling (especially in Dynamic), the seats are really comfortable, the ride is perfect (I highly recommend air suspension), safety & tech is all there (items excluded weren’t important for us like auto-parking), MMi touchscreen is simply the best in the industry (no touchpad, wheels, gesture - all touchscreen, customizable and intuitive beyond all expectations). We love the looks. The driver position is a perfect blend between car and SUV feel (I guess ‘wagon’ comes to mind). The dealer and discount/pricing was great. The fit and finish is tight/Germanic. We will have to see on reliability but I feel very confident in this long-running platform. So happy I held out, continued the search and found a winner.

I've owned 3 Japanese cars, 2 Americans, and I must say that this SUV is the best vehicle I've ever driven. It is incredibly enjoyable and comfortable. Although it does consume more gas than my dad drinks beer in a week, the Q7 is a fantastic vehicle. However, I do have one small issue. Why doesn't Audi have a regular AUX port like the rest of the world? I have to open the iPod box every time, which is not very convenient. Other than that, I have no complaints about this beautiful SUV.

Vehicle year: 2007
I've noticed that there is a slight hesitation when driving at low speeds, such as in parking lots or when making left turns without coming to a complete stop. I've learned to adapt to this quirk, but it can be dangerous at times. Despite having the car looked at twice by Audi, they were unable to find any apparent problems or duplicate my experiences. While I don't find it to be particularly nimble (although this may be an unfair comparison to my previous MDX), I do appreciate how quiet and luxurious it is, as well as the excellent visibility it provides.

Highway mileage is great, but city mileage is not as good. Additionally, accessing the third row can be a bit tight. However, the car has a solid feel overall.
Are you having problems with your Audi Q7?
Barry Ebert 2025-02-20
Vehicle year: 2015
Despite my initial satisfaction with this car, I encountered some issues after the mandatory engine fix in May. Despite bringing up my concerns with the dealership multiple times, I was told that there was nothing wrong with my car. Unfortunately, in October, my engine died while I was driving on the interstate with my children. After having my car towed and inspected by Audi for two weeks, they were unable to find the root cause of the issue and simply replaced some parts. However, my engine died again this week while on a trip, leaving me stranded in the middle of nowhere. Although I was disappointed that Audi required me to have the car serviced at an official dealership, I understand the importance of proper maintenance. While the cost of towing my car was significant, I am hopeful that the issue will be resolved soon. While this experience has been frustrating, I remain confident in Audi's commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.

Other reviews have done well to highlight the pros of the Q7. I won't repeat those. However, I do want to share my experience with the car's maintenance needs. It's important for any potential buyer to be aware of this. Unfortunately, I did encounter some issues with my brakes and tires. They began to squeak at 15,000 miles and needed to be replaced by 20,600 miles. I mostly use the car for commuting my kids around, so I drive rather conservatively. A quick search will show that this is not a unique experience and that there are numerous complaints out there. While Audi has not yet found a solution, I still believe that the Q7 is a great car overall. I just wish that I had known about this issue before making my purchase. I hope that this information will help other buyers make an informed decision.
Ali Watsica 2025-02-15
Vehicle year: 2020
Pros - The car is well-built and provides a great ride. However, there are a few areas that could be improved. The cup holders are a bit small, there is no center console storage, and the seat adjustments are limited compared to other SUVs in the same price range. Additionally, there are quite a few adjustments on the instrument panel, which can be overwhelming. Unfortunately, there is no tire pressure readout, and I have noticed that I have consumed 1.5 quarts of oil in the first 3000 miles, which is not acceptable. Overall, I am a bit disappointed and this will probably be my first and last Audi.
Alf Schuster 2025-02-14

Is there really a third row? It seems like it's only big enough for a child to wiggle in. When the third row is up, there's no space left. It's surprising how little space there is for a car of this length. Unfortunately, I broke the auto trunk lid within 10 minutes of using it. I should have read the instructions, but I don't expect my guests and friends to have to read the manual to use it properly. This is a big car, but it seems like all the space is used by the front half. We made a mistake, so please learn from ours.

Car design and comfort are great. Although service, reliability and build quality could be improved, it's still a good car to consider. If you decide to go for it, keep in mind that some issues may arise, but it's nothing that can't be fixed. Maintenance can be expensive, but it's worth it to keep your car in top shape. Fuel economy is average for a heavy car. The Audi Care Maintenance package covers scheduled maintenance, which is a plus. Overall, I enjoyed the car for the first two years, and with proper care, it can continue to be a great ride.
