Default Ordered my 2014 Q5TDI and now reading, reading, reading

I put the order a couple of weeks ago on a Prestige Midnight Blue and was told that I should have it by end of May.

So now I just can't find out enough things about my first Audi (but not first diesel).

Congrats on the Order.

The time between now and May will seem like forever but the wait is totally worth it.

Check out the 2014 TDI Thread:

And the smaller TDI Review Thread:

and search on google(much better searching than in site):
https://www.google.com/search?q=audi....audiworld.com

And sign up for Fuelly.com to track your MPG with the TDI.

Love my TDI!

I got the Midnight Blue Prestige package. I felt like that was enough of a vehicle for me so not too much aside from that, although with kids I did want the rear side airbags.

I guess I might need to brace myself to be flamed but I ordered the car without a sunroof. Those things never appealed to me even with cars I have previously owned with them.

Thanks so much fellow newcomer, every time I revisit this forum my mouth re-salivates in anticipation!

Are you getting the mileage you anticipated?

I have the midnight blue as well with milano grey leather ( luxury package with ventilated seats ) In term of mileage I am very pleased with it on highways I am doing easily over 30 mpg ( winter drive and snow tyres) and in city I don't see any improvement versus my previous Q5 2.0T which is acceptable. What I know is the mileage per gallon will improve a bit over time based on comments of one of my friwnd who has a TDI VW for some time...the most impressive is the torque at low RPM...the power is wonderful

You will enjoy
