Hey guys, I am picking up my 2011 Q5 2.0T Sline this saturday and wanted to know what I should expect. What questions should I ask? Anything you guys can think of would help.

 

Call them now and make the PROMISE YOU that they will NOT wash the car!! Dealers are notorious for putting swirls in the paint thought improper washing techniques. Buy some quality care care products and take pride in that 1st wash yourself. Autogeekonline Auto Detailing Forum is a great resource. Congrats and have a great weekend.

 

Oh, and don't let them forget to give you the valet key.

 

Check for the mats, make sure they're inside, also make sure your roof racks are in the trunk. Check your center console lid for noises when you open/close them (common problem). And check the body of the car very carefully.

Congrats.

 

Also, if you paid for wheel locks, make sure the kit is in the car.

 

I was told every Q5 regardless of rim comes included with wheel locks. I guess that's not the case. But good point indeed to check for that. Another thing to check if you have the Nav package (I think it comes with Nav, or maybe it comes with B&O) is to check for the ipod or 3.5mm wire. (depending on what you ordered).

 

thanks everyone for the great tips. Cheers!

 

I did not realize that roof racks were standard? is this true?

 

Yes - every Q5 comes with roof rails and included Audi cross bars.
