    Audi not only puts the timing components on the rear of the engine; they also use plastic guides that shatter, and these 3.0 Supercharged cars will go out of timing just a tooth and run fine but its a major hassle to ever get it right...

      @@AutoAuctionRebuilds well you did have misfire codes but no, they don’t typically cause hard misfire (flashing CEL). The car is probably down a little on power and that’s about it for now. Chances are broken guides on the tensioner as well as the small guide on top. It’s always the driver side that seems to go first.

    When your battery goes dead for a long time, run a vehicle specific, Drive Cycle, so the computer can reboot. It will throw codes that aren't a problem because the computer can't communicate with it. One of the things I had to do in my Tahoe was start if from cold and let it completely warm up while running a lot of electrical items. He ran the AC during warm up. My oil pressure sender is faulty. Sensors can be bad, disconnected, corroded connectors or have damaged wires.
    I would imagine you can get your money back just selling it as a parts car.

But I am proud to say that as of last week, every single thing on the car is officially working! The air suspension was a hassle to fix, but I got it. Her name is Betty, and I love her. I’ve been an Audi guy my whole life, and those older Q5s and Q7s are absolute beasts. A lot of people complain that older Audis have engine issues, but if you treat them well, they’ll treat you well right back. I’m currently looking into getting a 2020 or 2021 SQ5 as well, so I’m excited about that too! Hope the Q5 treats you well, Randy! Good luck!

    Now that the battery has 5v..... take your oldest charger and hook that up to only the battery from the car.... no other battery included. Now that it has 5v it might allow the charger to do its job and not default it out. Also, buy an old school charger from the 70's, 80's and it won't have the technology that today's chargers do. It will charge the batter regardless of whether it has 0v or 5v.

    would make sense it’s saying “low”if the sensor isn’t working as that would b what would tell the system what pressure it is…

    I watched a video on TH-cam of a guy took a stick welder and "boiled" a battery for a few minutes a few times letting it "cool" each time and brought the battery back. Might be worth a look.
