Generally, the company has received more than 2500 warranty appeals due to oil leaks and 11 messages about cases associated with excessive heat or engine fire.

Audi announced the recall of nearly 90 thousand crossovers Q5 Quattro and Q5 Sportback Quattro 2022-2024 model years, the Carcomplaints reports.

As mentioned in Audi, the cause of the problem of steel “different torque when twisted by the cylinder head cover screws, without guaranteeing a reliable sealing connection in all cases”, as a result of which the damage may appear on the surface of the cylinder head cover. They are sufficient for screws to lose torque and oil flow.

The first complaints about oil leakage from Q5 to Audi machines were found in May 2023, after which a company engineer began. In January 2024, sellers sent a technical ballot with instructions to check the screws and replace the weak ones. However, the company continued to monitor the situation, and in May 2024 he began receiving reports of “thermal incidents” on machines.

In general, Audi received 2,539 warranty appeals due to oil leaks and 11 messages about incidents related to overheating or engine heat. At the same time, the car manufacturer insists that the problem can be remembered about 5% of all recalled cars.

Those who have Audi Q5 will receive official letters regarding the review starting on July 8, 2025. In service centers, entrepreneurs will review screws for free and, if necessary, replace them.

We reminded, earlier reported that General Motors recalled 721 thousand cars due to defective machines.
