Most common problems:

Oil consumption

The 2014 Audi SQ5 with a 6-cylinder engine is known to have issues with excessive oil consumption, which may require frequent top-offs and could potentially lead to engine damage if not monitored.

Carbon buildup

Direct injection engines, like the one in this Audi, can suffer from carbon buildup on the intake valves, leading to reduced performance and fuel efficiency over time.

Timing chain tensioner

Problems with the timing chain tensioner can result in a rattling noise, and if not addressed, it may lead to severe engine damage due to timing chain failure.

Turbocharger issues

The turbocharged engines can sometimes experience failures or malfunctions, leading to a loss of power and poor performance.

Pcv valve failure

A failing Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve can cause oil leaks, increased oil consumption, and rough idling.

Coolant leaks

There have been reports of coolant leaks from the water pump or hoses, which can lead to engine overheating if not promptly fixed.
