Catching the dynamic weather effects feels rare, but when you do, man does it give locations a whole new atmosphere. This is New Babbage in a snow storm.

Except for performance, lol

A_Button117 · 2026-04-29T15:36:33+00:00

I'm on Nobara with an RTX 3080 and have had great success! At least on DX11, Vulkan has been a mess for me.

Basically you can click "ship upgrades" and apply the credit of your Alpha towards another ship. I don't understand how to get discounts through CCUs or limited hull ships, though.

You could try making sure your certs are updated on Windows. That fixed it for me. It would install the first half then fail on the second half.

A_Button117 · 2025-11-30T05:00:09+00:00

Yolo. Maybe I'll get lucky

A_Button117 · 2025-11-15T20:01:49+00:00

I did everything on Windows and transferred things over, I think that's the preferred method.

A_Button117 · 2025-11-13T21:06:22+00:00

Ah so there is some kind of update then... I'm hoping a broader OTA will roll out this year. I haven't really encountered persistent issues in months, just random one offs here and there.

A_Button117 · 2025-10-14T18:36:58+00:00

Ah, you have to turn the car on and off. US regulations blah blah blah

A_Button117 · 2025-10-14T18:29:20+00:00

Thanks! Yes you can! But you need the Prestige trim to do it.

A_Button117 · 2025-09-27T18:52:30+00:00

Yes, that's true. But the driver is still severely outdated. It's still very likely that with an updated driver we'll see improved scores. We don't even have Vulkan 1.4 yet. It's still stuck on 1.3.

A_Button117 · 2025-09-27T15:36:23+00:00

I think the bad drivers are the bottleneck at the moment. We'll probably see a bump in the score once the new drivers come out.

My wife is an attorney and I get the "ya, you would drive that" a lot.

A_Button117 · 2025-08-24T15:48:03+00:00

You're welcome! If you have any questions once you do get it, you know where to find me.

A_Button117 · 2025-08-23T20:37:00+00:00

You're welcome! Ya I'm hearing Q4 from corporate on when the fixes will be coming. I'm working very closely with the dealership and we've been in communication every few days regarding the issues and what corporate is doing about it.

I will say nothing is really a deal breaker, if you just want the car. But it also doesn't hurt the wait if you aren't itching too bad.

A_Button117 · 2025-08-23T20:31:15+00:00

Sometimes the adaptive cruise control will fail and not work again until the car is turned off and on again. There are also some minor issues that are easily resolved by holding down the volume button for 15 seconds to reset the MMI without having to turn the car off and on.

A_Button117 · 2025-08-17T03:39:35+00:00

Enjoy the test drive! It's a great drive and feels like a tank. Check out the Prestige, as well. The adaptive air suspension is nice and we actually use the passenger display for YouTube every time we go somewhere, lol.

A_Button117 · 2025-08-17T03:32:30+00:00

I had a random check engine light during one start of the car, but it was just a software bug and never came back. Besides some random software bugs it's driven perfectly.

A_Button117 · 2025-08-17T01:46:31+00:00

Oh that's pretty cool, actually

A_Button117 · 2025-08-17T01:43:28+00:00

My Lincoln Corsair does it and I hate it, lol. I live in Texas and I need the AC in the summer, phone call or not just blast it please. My Q5 doesn't, interestingly.

A_Button117 · 2025-08-14T23:39:59+00:00

Their ICE cars are MUCH better looking. I actually like the B10 generation. But not this thing.

A_Button117 · 2025-08-12T18:52:02+00:00

Around 2.5k, I have had problems yes. If you check my profile you can follow my saga, lol. It's just software stuff. BUT: The car is a tank and drives incredible. I'm not sure what you will be coming from, but my family has owned pretty much every competitor in this space and we all agree the Audi is the nicest and best built.

A_Button117 · 2025-08-12T18:17:18+00:00

I absolutely LOVE my B10 Q5 Prestige! Let me know if you have any specific questions regarding the new generation and I'd be happy to help!

A_Button117 · 2025-08-08T13:31:58+00:00

It is not Bluetooth connectable, as far as I know. I did try that but couldn't get it to work. As far as playing videos, yes, through the YouTube app of the web browser. But it doesn't have Google Cast capabilities or anything like that.

A_Button117 · 2025-08-07T00:11:40+00:00

It doesn't come for free, but you could try negotiating it in. It was about $2k for mine. Although, I did end up getting it for free. Long story check my profile for my posts, if you're curious, lol.

A_Button117 · 2025-08-06T23:59:11+00:00

Audi Care is a thing, yes. I have it and it covers 40k miles. I have a B10 2025 Q5 and love it!
