2012 Q5
Many car manufactures experience problems with parts after Japan earthquake.
For example, BMW can't sold some new cars ( 5 and X3) with out navigation. Some problems with chips that go in for car that don't have navi.
Your dealer is a best source - contact you SA.
In the case you need more info from Audi ED department - you can send them e-mail - auditalk@audi.com
Good luck!
P.S. I just send e-mail with your question to one of the member of this board. You can check his web site http://www.iamaudi.com/

thanks for replay.
I think eyeshri was asking if there are production delay for Q5do to model year changeover? and when is a good time to order ED car for July delivery.
I sign up all papers on April 1 for mid July delivery.
I am looking at the same stuff that TIME89 is ordering Q5/Meteor Gray/ Premium Plus/ Nav
I just put in an order for a 2012 Q7. The back-up camera is not on the order sheet, and I've been told it's because they're out of chips from Japan for that. Does anyone know what Audi plans to do to compensate for that? Lower price, make the chip available at a later point for free/at substantial discount. I'm told the wiring for the camera plus the camera itself will be put in, so an after-purchase installment seems plausible.
ED is a wonderful experience, we picked up our 2011 Q7 in Ingolstadt last August and were very happy with the entire process.
