    Q5 In the market for a Q5 8R... what should I be looking for?

    If you went auto like me, get some history on the gearbox. My gearbox on my 2010 was serviced by Audi 2 years ago but now I have a "once a month" gearbox malfunction error at 112k. You are going for a later model may be okay as mine is 1st generation.

    Audi Q5 Gearbox error 2010 S-Tronic 2.0 TDI

    Right had another scan and sadly there was not a code of P07000 - Vanilla Milkshake / lubricant in the electronics, so time to let that silly theory go I think... Most likely the other garage didn't do a full scan or something, but another garage came up with this attached.

    Hi all, I see this is discussed across the internet but my circumstances (not yet) don't appear as severe, but wanted to get some advice before I bowl in to Audi.

    Q5 Steering wheel upgrade SE-T (8R)

    Hi thanks for your reply. I have decided that I would prefer to keep stock, I have opted out of the paddles as it would only be something that I would say "look at this" then never use. So I will go for the standard sports 3 spoke steering wheel without paddles. I am assuming that I would not...
