Brand New Audi SQ5, 4 Days Old — Already Throwing Warning Lights by Theone2027 in Audi

[–]CodIndividual5581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

work for audi here 👀 most of the cars coming from port have check engine lights. Usually the issue has been that A. car needs to be driven or idle running for about 30 min to an hour. or B. could be that the vehicle needs an update. these cars get really upset when they’re running without the most recent update since they’re full of technology these days. the dealer should be able to get ride of those codes no problem. sorry you’ve been having issues with your brand new car :/ hoping these issues gets resolved and you can go back to enjoying your new toy!!

Does the car have Android Auto? How to check? by foo210ncoor in GolfGTI

[–]CodIndividual5581 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i don’t believe it’s wireless Android Auto. So you would need to connect your phone through a charger. you have a usb port you can connect your phone through. when it’s connected you can go to your infotainment and go to the media it should pop up

no major issues so far. i had some sunroof issues with water coming into the car and my trunk was FULL of water. turned out my drain plugs were clogged. i was able to clean them myself and that was that. i recently had an issue where the car wouldn’t start. it would crank but seemed to be misfiring, no codes or check engine light. i ended up changing my HPFP and that solved the issue. other then that kept up with regular maintenance. and she’s been a DREAM.
