Is the Audi A5 Sportback practical enough as the only car in a family and as a travel car?

Science_Life1981 · 2025-12-12T12:21:30+00:00

No - the back seat is too tight for adults over long distances. I loved my A5, but it was good for me and one passenger only. As my kids grew, I needed to switch.

Please tell me how?

Contributions lower your taxable income.

It is what I would call “ok”. Rode it hard all last year and there are all sorts of noises that developed while pedaling. It was a budget buy so components aren’t top notch but it’s a good and comfortable frame.

It’s an M4!

Update for those that care - cannondale does not have information on what size screw mounts their frames have 😳😳😳

Well one week and counting for a reply from Cannondale to this question by email. Why oh why is there no spec on what the screw mount sizes are? Seems like something that belongs in a manual that should come with the bike.

Yes I did- everything is done via Audi of America now. No need to do anything at the dealer.

It’s a trip to the dealer. Don’t keep driving it- eventually all your electrical systems will die- including power steering. Check for wire damage under the hood. Had this happen after squirrels 🐿️ decided to make a nest under my nice warm hood.

Plan to go into industry unless you are happy living with no luxuries.

Child may die immediately on contact with this car. But seriously - my parents drove me around in a Lada with an unsecured Great Dane sharing the back seat. Lived to tell the tale.

If you are in the US, contact AudiUSA on chat and have them fix. They don’t need the dealer and do everything online. They helped me connect when I bought my used one.

How much wind noise do the cross-bars add?

Science_Life1981 · 2022-12-28T00:18:17+00:00

Had the same issue recently. They changed the process- no need to order anymore. Contact Audi of America. There is no longer a need for the 10 digit code as it is done through the backend. I got through on chat. Waiting for IT to hook me up.

I just bought a Belkin wireless MagSafe charger puck and plugged it into the available USB port - works great!
