is oil in coolant a big issue on these cars >? what causes that ?

Can you upgrade the 2007 Audi Q7 mmi system to a later version like 2011?

Would you recommend a q7?

Please respond ? I need that advice

Is a very good car, my choice is V6 3.0 TDI but you have to make sure you check all the points in the video. Have a vw-audi mechanic inspect it for you. And remember it is not a toyota is a premium car.

@@peethoo we had a 2012 ml 350 pretty reliable, of course keeping it well maintained

@@peethoo Premium mean just couple of shit for high price? :-)

thanks!

Zheka Kondratev now you’ve made me drop my coffee laughing. I needed that. Thank you.

right, but I think this fellow speaks perfect english and pretending to be an italian. or maybe the idea behind it is just representation in some funny way, i dont know :)

Blaah blaaah 🦇

The most important thing is that his review saved me lot of troubles as I was thinking to buy a Q7 2011 in the US. Lucky me seeing this video before getting one. I will be very fine with Toyota Camry or Honda accord.

...he is Hungarian?....

I bought a 2008 about 2 weeks ago. Read up on the Bose amplifier power drawing down the battery over night. There is a fix.

How long did it last?

You got this , I’m debating between this or a used ls460

How it is going after month?

@@JustasG So far so good!

@@TeamWasted206 Thinking of swapping my ls460 for this. LS460 parts are crazily expensive. You gotta be prepared if you want that car. But its very reliable though

Me too

This is coming from an ACTUAL Q7 OWNER, myself and I'll just say this. I've HEARD all of the horror stories that were mentioned in this video about the vehicle and never had a 1/4 of the issues that was mention and between me and my wife, we own 2 of them. They are both Tdi's and both prestige models. We've been owning them for over 10 years with mines at 124k and hers at 92k now. I have every single option on mines including the very rare luxury package and just being honest, the only issue that I ever had was indeed the door handles in which I still have on the truck. I just always use the keyfob itself to lock and unlock the doors rather than the touch sensor. The early model Q7's, pre-facelift versions had/have this issue because of the design. What happens is water tends to get inside of them after the rubber seals fail over time, causing the chip in them to go bad. It cost online right at about $230 for all four handles as a set and a teenager with common sense could replace them. I just never bothered because of what's mention already. I get 625 miles out of one tank of fuel and that's even hammering on it from time to time. The truck only has a 26 gallon tank and weights right at about 6k with all of the options that I have. My wife's truck being newer has the 8 spd tranny and gets around 635-640 miles out of one tank all at the cost of around $68 from empty at the current cost of fuel where we live. To ME, that's pretty damn good! I maintain the vehicles myself in my garage and do once a year oil, filters and trans fluid changes and only use VW approved fluids. All in all if you do what you're suppose to do them with them maintenance wise, they will always be good to you. I'll end my reply to you with this fact. Autozone and other parts store giants didn't become the success that they are off of premium vehicles.

Thanks for the tip! The skoda superb shares basically all the engines with the passat B6 and B7, so in the meantime you at least know what to expect from the engines if you have seen my used passat video.

Rashford

I was too until I seen this video lol!

@@turkeyyman7290 go for it, every car has its own problems watch all of its reviews, dont go for the range rover

@@alfonspashollari6436 yeah definitely not a Rover! I can't work on them and not about to give my whole check to someone that can lol

I’m looking around too I just wonder is reliability same as Volkswagen tdi suv or Passat or Jetta is Audi tdi as reliable ?

thanks !

And what ?

Has the Q7 been good to you? Any problems?

yes, it's definitely not a bad car, but you have to pay attention to all those little things like the water drains, which can cause more trouble over time

How is 4.2 holding on? I am planning to buy one also

And which year 4.2?

Is the Q7 still running strong?

Hell yeah well it’s been at the dealership waiting on a egr pipe for a month and I had them change all the fluids while It’s in there but they gave me a brand new q5 to use until my Q7 is done q5 is nice but too small btw my Q7 is still under factory warranty which is saaaweeeeet!

It just getting broke in just turned 90,000

What engine did u have in yours? I'm looking to buy one having a baby soon and family already big

I have the v6 supercharger

Bought my wife a 2012 Q7 v6 supercharged version and it’s been a real nice suv for us so far.

I highly appreciate the response just wasn't trying to seek a a vehicle that's going cost me dearly for extensive repairs

Unruly GT350 to be honest, most problems come from people who use the wrong tool for the job. Having the right tools, torque the bolts and nuts to proper specs, and don’t take short cuts will make life easier. The design of the Q7 from Audi was a good machine. It’s a good buy from my end.

Do you still have it?

@@iwaswrongabouteveryhthing yes I still own it and drive to work everyday!

@@solboogie08 does your screen work?

What engine ?

@@iwaswrongabouteveryhthing it turns on and then goes blank.

deleted tdi? You sure its toyota reliable

What 21” tire you recommend for these? I find Continental DWS are somewhat loud and hum a lot.

@@olegk455 We use Pirellis Scorpion Zero but they’re a little bit taller than usual 295/40 R21. You could say they’re loud but what do you expect for a tire with a footprint of that size anyways. It is still very comfortable while highway cruising.

so. tfsi. is good engine?

Just bought a 2015 S-line Prestige and I am amazed at how awesome this SUV is! It's well maintained so hopefully if we just keep up with that it will last our family for a very long time

Most interested with q7

Q7?

A couple of times, l pull over, let it cool down, turn it off for a few minutes and restart

Yeah I was looking at the 2008 Q7 this video got me like 😬 I don't no removing engine to replace timeing chain

@@richardjohnson4065 that is all about luck, i had a 2006 and let me tell you i did everything to that car and never give me problem, and that was in Dominican Republic where a car have to be really good to survive, now i am getting a 2012.

If it's one thing I've learnt from working on my Q7 is if possible take it to a good euro mechanic for trouble shooting. I had a dash screen that wasn't working, l bought a new one but it didn't fix it, all up l wasnt about 7 hours work on it and drive 12 months with no radio/air suspension adjustment Mechanic scanned the ECU for codes and told me what it was then l fixed it

Wild unskilled guess maybe the heater core?

@@iwaswrongabouteveryhthing brooo i need help

@@liberationwasalie2982 with what

Same as me, it looks so nice but when you hear the negative stuff then you kind of back off.

Better before or after 2010?

@@michaelbmw1931 171Kw 3.0 tdi Best engine. Second is 176 kw. 180 kw and 150 kw are worse (two chains instead of 4)

@@Greg-nf8df is 2 chains better or worse than 4 chains? Thanks

@@hansonchan2 worse with 2 chains.

Absolutely. Rather buy the 4.2 V8 Diesel.

this is 2014 man
