Genuinely my first thoughts were that the key had been changed and the originals weren't recognised. I thought there was mechanical release under the centre console/arm rest on these electronic handbrake models but I guess not on the Q5. Looking forward to the rest of the resto, cheers for another good video!
this is awesome, i love how you're actively teaching and showing your diagnosis process. im a programmer by trade but i love cars so this is super helpful. just subbed
I bought a new Skoda a few years ago and one key hadn’t been coded to the car. Didn’t know until I sold it and tried the spare. Great content as always, looking forward to the next instalment!!
They paint all the bumpers separate (and at different times, sometimes at an entirely different factory) from the body these days on mass production cars. Which is why you get this problem.
Mark Mawson most of them paint are been done by the main dealer in the back yard garage not professionally because they are lease cars when they get the car back after 3 year of leasing cars come with a lot of scratched and stone ships so they do cheap paint and after market parts to make it ready for resale
I did my apprenticeship at Porsche, many many years ago. Then went to all the main dealers, Nissan,, Toyota,, VW.. I did exactly what your doing now,, then one day I woke up sold everything I had,, bought a farm in UK.. Best thing I ever did,,, Make the most of your time+enjoy it,,, Great Great video.
A lot of stolen recovered cars will be absolutely fine once they’ve had a deep clean, from the cars point of view all that’s happened is someone else has driven it.
Lovely Q5! Easy, quick turn around for you mate! So, when are you gonna get the interior for the Polo put in? I've really enjoyed the Polo journey. Its gonna be absolutely mint when you've finished with it!
Easy to recode a new key yourself, you need two things 1) Vag Pin Code Reader £40-80 depending where you get it (CEMTL) 2) VCDS (can look up a guide how add key)
Well done for finally getting it started your computer scanner and also your key programmer chappy is a life saver keep up the good hard work 👍👍🚗 best regards stay safe Mark from Billericay 🇬🇧
I was amazed after watching your video how unearth can anybody give you thumbs down I’m not a mechanic but always been interested in the Way cars run I come from the The time when the car wouldn’t start you took the top of the distributor to see if there was a spark. Unfortunately for old timers like me there go on forever. Although I know nothing about modern technology and fault finding I was able to follow all the way through your diagnosis regarding the issue. Although I’m physically disabled my head still works fine so I will look forward to watching your future videos because it’s never too late to learn even if you’re never be able to do it
Isn't there a manual release for the hand brake? Peugeot includes a flexible cable where the spare wheel is. It has a little 90 degree handle. You put it in a hole on the passenger side floor which then clicks into a part of the handbrake. You then keep turning which manually releases it.
Audi branded batteries are VARTA Silver with a few Audi stickers covering the Varta logo, for my Audi a Varta Silver was about £130, my local Audi dealership wanted £265 + VAT.
Mate keep up the amazing work! I have the same engine in my A4, and it would be really amazing to see you do some diesels, not only petrol engined cars! And also i think i can say it in everybodys name, we would really love to see more actual repair content, not just timelapsed. These videos of you telling how you diagnosed certain problems worth gold!! I learn a lot from you! Please never stop doing videos. Cheers!
dash has to come out ? or area where key ignition system sits using the special tool to release the tabs and pull out replace with new or used one. Then use same keys as the ignition is not fitted to any control modules nor the ecu ecm pcm or otherwise
Unbelievable and frankly shocking that you were able to reprogram the keys without having access to the now 'real' key that the car recognises (the one the thieves programmed). I knew that thieves use the OBD2 port to start cars and drive them away, but what I learned now is that they can on the spot just make a new key and off they are. Pretty bad that the manufacturer doesn't or cannot stop that.
I know this is a while ago but manufacturer has to build in this option for all keys lost incase, obviously, all keys are lost😂it is annoying though I give you that, some devices can do it in as little as 10 seconds as well which means they are just off with your car before you can blink
You need to treat yourself to a set of skates/casters would have been handy to have for the polo and q5... probably some other cars! Great video, glad it turned on 👏🏻
I know this is 3 years ago now but for anyone who doesn’t know what they do is jump in connect obd and run a program that allows “all keys lost” option, means they can code a key right there and then just pulls data from eeprom etc and takes very little time some models under 10 seconds Audi normally a little longer but generally always the same thing and easy to sort. Makes it a massive pain to move around etc though of course.
Glad I stumbled on your channel. Along with "Hub Nut", "Furious Driving", "Volkswizard", "Hoovies" & "Car Wizard" its informative as well as entertaining.
The TDI is recalled for emission controls, and the main control modules and all engine sensors are covered by a factory warranty for four years after the work is done. You should call a dealer to see the status of the Q5. My 2013 Q7 still has 2 years and 30k kilometres left
got to admit that from the minute you couldn't get anything from the car in terms of power I was yelling 'that's the battery that mate! at my tv. i thought it would be the original one too! sorry I'm not usually this right about cars lol. nice car btw! just subbed so will catch up asap. eddited again.. good job on the car there! good move with milk crates and then the coding for the new keys, looks like a beast of a car, is it a v6??
Great video.. Im buying 1 of these next week in same colour and engine spec. If 3 wheels have shiney bolts and 1 has all rusted. Is there a reason for this? Any other things to look out for on these Q5 diesels
We have the same spec Q5 3.0 TDI here in the USA. Love it! But emissions system has needed a few repairs, fortunately under warranty. Sensors and such.
If it was bought stolen recovered and there was no sign of tampering to start it, the first thing i would be looking at would be key coding, and if the key was recognised. Before that, as almost any modern car is completely dependent on battery power thats the first thing i would have checked before even the diagnostic came out. As to the electronic parke brake being stuck on, whats with the tote boxes??? If you are dealing with salvage, where were the workshop wheel skates? They would have been the very first thing fitted.
Hello pal. Give us a few tips on places we can grab bargains like this, share a few salvage places or places these kind of cars can be purchased. Thanks
I just started watching u. Wonderful videos, fantastic channel. u r doing a great job. Just spotted smthg. In the module mileage was 61k but in the dash 34k. Why? Have u or anyone else also spotted it? Pls ignore me if u already metioned next videos. Btw i am not mechanic or any expert.
The bottom panel on the boot (which I think is metal) matches the off-colour bumper, looks like the bumper and bottom of the boot panel have been replaced at some point
in one of his earlier videos he explains he used to be a MOT tester , for this you have to be a time served mechanic for 3 years . , im sure he will comment tho just chipping in
So , correct me if I'm wrong. But to code the key you must be authorised and it must be logged somewhere? Surly if this got reported then the perpetrator could be caught??
I looked at the q5 on Copart but bottle it thinking it might be flood damage . Good buy , what type of money are you after ? quick flip ? Maybe interested at the right price ;)
@@SavingSalvage Makes sense. Keep up the good work mate, I'm very jealous of your current collection of cars (especially the RS3)! I've got a MK6 Golf GTI and watching your videos really helps me better understand VAG cars.
My thoughts. What if the car was stolen running with key not present. Stolen. Driven to location. Turned off and could not be restarted. What is the keys provided with the car are new keys that they were unable to code?
Hi I have vw beetle the passenger door dose not lock and dose not lock on remote but locks the drivers door with the key could give me some ideas to try

Looks like the rear bumper and lower part of the rear hatch has been painted together because they seem to colour match
Most probably second hand. If it has been painted who ever painted it needs to go to spec savers.
Its actually the rear quarter panel and osr door thats been painted. doh
@@SavingSalvage stevie wonder must of painted it. Do a video of a walk around showing the paint work and not just the rear end.
They paint all the bumpers separate (and at different times, sometimes at an entirely different factory) from the body these days on mass production cars. Which is why you get this problem.
Mark Mawson most of them paint are been done by the main dealer in the back yard garage not professionally because they are lease cars when they get the car back after 3 year of leasing cars come with a lot of scratched and stone ships so they do cheap paint and after market parts to make it ready for resale

Yep! That’s pretty standard with a lot of Audi parts! They have a massive mark up
Also Varta & Bosch batteries are made in the same factory, they have the exact same shape casings

First time on your channel, found it real interesting, cant wait to see more from you especially on this Great Audi
Thanks
love you showing the process
That has to be the best slogan I have ever heard . « Can’t sell them so buy more » 😂 nice one
Haha been telling the misses same thing 😂
Good business man😂
But the person he got the Q5 from can sell them
@@DirtIndustry
That's not what hè said

You can do it!
@@SavingSalvage Thanks for supplying some motivation.
Very interesting video mate, love to see behind the scenes so to speak with the VCDS and the laptop stuff. But that’s also why I hate newer cars 🤣

Welcome aboard!
Check out Torque Steer too.
Delighted for you buddy, always good to have contacts like your mate to help 😀😀
Great video don’t ya just love it when a plan comes together 👌
Absolutely
First video Ive seen of yours but can tell that you put a lot of effort in your vids. Great stuff.

eddited again.. good job on the car there! good move with milk crates and then the coding for the new keys, looks like a beast of a car, is it a v6??
Yeah the battery was knackered, but main fault was the keys, yep its a 3.0 v6 240ps
Same engine Audi used for the Q7 if I'm not mistaken ??? Do the TDI engines have the same timing chain problems as the petrol engines have ?????
yes same as the Q7 and alot of the 3.0 VAG engines, no timing issues on the diesels no
Nice one great to see technical knowledge paying off👍🏻
well I didn't think much at first, but you grabbed my attention, well done. great job
Some really good work there figuring that out, id have changed all sorts before I figured that out.
Haha thanks !
Enjoying the content as usual, refreshed interest with the Q5, look forward to what you'll do with it
Thank you for your reply it’s nice to know that you look at the comments Weather negative or positive
Great video.. Im buying 1 of these next week in same colour and engine spec. If 3 wheels have shiney bolts and 1 has all rusted. Is there a reason for this? Any other things to look out for on these Q5 diesels
New subscriber here. Great videos and good work on shifting it across the yard 😄 Good result....I’ll watch the other ones now 👍🏼
Good work sorting it out. Is there something up with the colour match on the Polo GTI? Door and wing look a different shade in thus vid.
Cracking video! Love the ones where you have to fault-find and solve mysteries!
Thanks 😊
Doesn't look like its been Painted well i've got one eye and Blind in the other and that lower tailgate and Bumper has been painted BIG TIME.
I thought it was the bumper, but it’s actually the OSR quarter and OSR door that’s been painted badly
We have the same spec Q5 3.0 TDI here in the USA. Love it! But emissions system has needed a few repairs, fortunately under warranty. Sensors and such.
Any issues ...am looking to get a 2009 3.0 tdi with 120k kms
Great vid and looks like a right bargain!! Quick clean up and sort the minor bodywork then $$$
That’s the plan :)
Great video Dean. Awesome car. Hopefully you don’t have to spend too much on it to get it tip top

You can use Vcds the release the epb. Thinking outside the box with forklift and skates. 👍
Not with the ignition off.. wouldn’t communicate
Aren't they Q3 alloys? Our old 2016 SLine plus Q3 came with those wheels, I didn't realise the Q5 had them too?
Any updates on the Audi Q7 with air suspension issues.. I can only find two videos
What is your overall experience with the Q5 3.0 TDI? Thinking of getting one.
Wow, excellent job. From Puerto Rico, thank you for sharing the info.
Thanks for watching!
nice video! can you share how to reprogramm a key? you made it by vcds or odis?
Is it permanent Quattro as wouldn't it wear without 4 identical tread tyres?! Major service, cambelt, tyres, MOT and a healthy profit.
I love your videos. Love the T shirt but I live in the USA. I just bought a 2018 Q5 and adore it!
Awesome! Thank you!
Hello pal. Give us a few tips on places we can grab bargains like this, share a few salvage places or places these kind of cars can be purchased.

Dee Jay I know about copart but thanks for your reply. The uploader won’t reveal any places though
Hi, which tool did you use for remote key programming? Thanks!
I just started watching u. Wonderful videos, fantastic channel. u r doing a great job. Just spotted smthg. In the module mileage was 61k but in the dash 34k. Why? Have u or anyone else also spotted it? Pls ignore me if u already metioned next videos. Btw i am not mechanic or any expert.
Thanks 😊 The module would have been in the default KMS instead of the dash MLS👍🏽
Appreciate the effort you put into your vids bud
Thankyou mate
I noticed at 7:59 it shows the mileage at 61524km which is approximately 59000 miles has the car been clocked back?
You got your sums wrong bud. 0.62 miles is 1km
Saving Salvage sorry champ your right 👍
Fantastic video glad its started cannot believe someone stole it and coded a new key to the its mad can't wait for next one
Well done dean. Lovely looking car mate. Looking forward to this rebuild.
Thanks 👍
Which Copart did you get it from and how much was it? Love your videos I’m working on a VW polo 2012 from Copart
Would have been nice to see how you coded the keys to resolve the problem.
Nothing wrong with selling cars at the mo. Plenty of car garages open by appointment only and sticking to 2m distancing. Get selling 👍
The bottom panel on the boot (which I think is metal) matches the off-colour bumper, looks like the bumper and bottom of the boot panel have been replaced at some point
its the rear quarter and osr door thats been painted! thats the issue :(
Can you do a vid on your experience, what your training is, where you've previously worked etc??
in one of his earlier videos he explains he used to be a MOT tester , for this you have to be a time served mechanic for 3 years . , im sure he will comment tho just chipping in
Do we you have in plans to paint polo in the same colour as the front wing and drivers door are don't match??
Nice troubleshooting. You do love the vw / Audi’s...
It’s what I know 😃
What are you using for software and hardware to do diagnostics?
Great video, very interesting and learned a few things, keep us updated with the Audi
So , correct me if I'm wrong. But to code the key you must be authorised and it must be logged somewhere? Surly if this got reported then the perpetrator could be caught??
I’m not 100% if I’m honest, I’m sure there may be some hacker software out there. But not that I know of 🤷🏼♂️
I looked at the q5 on Copart but bottle it thinking it might be flood damage . Good buy , what type of money are you after ? quick flip ? Maybe interested at the right price ;)
I thought that, but came to the conclusion that if it was stolen it should drive!
Good stuff! Just because it’s bugging me....There is an update for vcds that version is old now dude lol
Haha, yeah the update is for the new cars. Don’t have any of those so never bothered updating it yet. I will do though 😆
True, but Your be banging out the new stuff befor you know it, aim high as they say 👍🏻
I'm a bit of an amateur with VCDS but I'm curious as to why you didn't auto scan rather than manually checking?
Because autoscan can take ages sometimes, so usually a lot quicker to go direct to the control modules
@@SavingSalvage Makes sense. Keep up the good work mate, I'm very jealous of your current collection of cars (especially the RS3)! I've got a MK6 Golf GTI and watching your videos really helps me better understand VAG cars.
Interestingly not moving the router around but move the car instead. Which one is heavier?
My router doesn’t have a 60 meter internet cable to plug into it
What OBD scanner do you use please? Would you be able to recommend any good low price ones
I use VAGCOM which is a VAG group tool. It is a generic obd reader too. I don’t have any other tool so wouldn’t know which to recommend sorry
take the poles of the battery. take the 2 wires and connect them for min 10 sek. put them back on the poles and the handbrake should relese
5hrs on the laptop ..........DEAD BATTERY!😂😂😂👍❤the 3ltr diesel great engine. 😁👍
Looking for a new samcrac channel, and I find a uk copart buyer, cool, subbed

Nice one!! Cheap fix That's good diagnostics 👍
Thanks 👍
what a great video content its a lovely q5 audi suv car ,all the best ,take care dean m8.
What tool you use to program keys?
What´s the name of your ODBII scanner? Liked your video.
VAGCOM 👍🏽
Having one mismatch tire for diameter will put a lot of wear on the Quattro system. Will probably trigger a low tire pressure light too.
Hi I have vw beetle the passenger door dose not lock and dose not lock on remote but locks the drivers door with the key could give me some ideas to try
Nice one look forward to next. 👍👍👍👍
Has the car keyless entry. Very scary I have a A3 would it be prudent to have a separate alarm/Immobiliser. Please advise
No the Q5 doesn’t have keyless entry, cars with keyless entry and start are susceptible to easy thefts using signal boosters. Google it 👍🏽
I have a 2015 Q5 TDI and I am thoroughly addicted to torque now...
Such a nice drive!
Nice work mate
Wow...what a result that was 😎
Excellent bit of investigation work, you really know that diagnostic tool well ! This is where your knowledge of cars really comes in handy. 👍🏽😎
