2019 Q5 issues

[heungsam]

I recently received a concerning service report for my 2019 Q5. Despite regular maintenance, the car is experiencing multiple issues, including a faulty fuel level sensor (P046100), a leaking engine mount, and deteriorating rear spring seats. The estimated cost for these repairs is significant. I'm surprised by these issues, given the car's age and maintenance history. I'd appreciate any advice on how to proceed.

How about getting an independent mechanic or an Audi expert to take a peek? They can give you their thoughts on what’s really going on and toss out a fresh estimate for you…it never hurts to get a second opinion, right?

For the fuel level sensor, it might be worth asking if it’s covered under any warranty or a recall. Especially if there's a lot of them being reported. As for the leaking engine mount and spring seats, those repairs can add up. Sometimes independent shops can offer lower prices than dealerships. You could also try negotiating with the service center for a discount, especially since the car has been well-maintained.
