I've driven my friend's Audi Q5 and test-drove the Q5L at the dealership. The most noticeable difference is the rear legroom. The 'L' in Q5L stands for 'Long-wheelbase,' with an 88mm longer wheelbase than the standard Q5. In the regular Q5, my knees were almost touching the front seats, but in the Q5L, I can easily cross my legs. The trunk depth is similar, but the Q5L's rear seats can be adjusted forward and backward. Both models come with a 2.0T engine, but the Q5L's low-power version is tuned to 190 horsepower, slightly lower than the overseas version. The front grille design is more aggressive, and a panoramic sunroof comes standard. After localization, the price is over 100,000 RMB cheaper, making the Q5L a more cost-effective choice for families.

Is it normal for the transmission to leak oil shortly after purchasing a new car?

No, it is not normal. Generally, the warranty period for transmissions exceeds one year. You should directly contact the manufacturer's hotline and request them to resolve the issue. Causes of oil leakage: Damage to the joint surface of the transmission case. In such cases, a thicker paper gasket should be added at the damaged area. If leakage persists, welding repair is necessary. Damaged sealing gasket. Replace it with an identical sealing gasket. Loose bolts on the transmission cover. Tighten them promptly. Handling methods: When a new car's transmission exhibits oil leakage, you must apply for a transmission replacement or repair. Transmission oil leakage leads to insufficient lubrication, accelerating gear friction. Moreover, transmission oil also serves to cool and remove impurities within the transmission. Prolonged operation without proper lubrication can result in transmission failure.

Conditions for setting DTC: The PCM has detected a loss of healthy serial data message status in the VTD system. Intermittent faults may occur due to poor contact, worn insulation on the wiring harness, or broken wires inside the insulation.

Do I Need to Change Transmission Fluid at 40,000 Kilometers?

Transmission fluid does not need to be changed at 40,000 kilometers. Signs that indicate the need for transmission fluid replacement include: vehicle shaking, gear shifting hesitation; transmission overheating warning on the dashboard; engine stalling; and unusual noises. Transmission fluid replacement intervals: Manual transmission: Manual transmission fluid is generally recommended to be replaced every three years or approximately 100,000 kilometers; Automatic transmission: Automatic transmission fluid is generally recommended to be replaced every two years or approximately 40,000 kilometers; Continuously variable transmission (CVT): CVT fluid is generally recommended to be replaced every two years or approximately 60,000 kilometers. Methods for changing transmission fluid: Loosen the drain plug at the bottom of the transmission to drain the old fluid before refilling; Remove the transmission oil pan directly to drain and refill the fluid: This method is more thorough than the previous one, as it removes impurities from the bottom of the oil pan; Use a circulation machine to replace automatic transmission fluid: Dynamic fluid replacement with an intelligent circulation machine can filter and clean sludge and impurities inside the automatic transmission.
