17,229 manufacturer communications are on file with NHTSA for the Audi Q5 — service bulletins, service campaigns, warranty extensions, and software updates, 2009 to 2026. Pick a year for its bulletin list.
A TSB is factory repair guidance, not a recall — the repair is not automatically free. For defects and free repairs, see the Audi Q5 problem rankings and each year's recall list.
Warranty extensions, campaigns & software updates
The communications worth checking your VIN against — unlike ordinary bulletins, these can mean free or reimbursed work if your vehicle qualifies.
