Best Q7 ever.
Brake fix is available. Just got mine repaired at the dealer. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/20...56497-0001.pdf
Sunroof : roof rails should be lubed by the dealer. Had that problem. Now fixed.
Sour smell : time for a new cabin air filter. A/C drain tube flush
Good luck.

We test drove the a6 with the new mmi and did not like how everything is touch screen now. Sure add the functionality to do touch screen but leave essential buttons like AC and such be manual.
So the current gen q7 can be had for a good deal, still debating on cars. Started a q7 completion / rival thread.
Liked the new X5 a d Gle 2020 was nice as well.

WOW 100K on a 2017 that's great to hear... I'm not even close to you at all, only closing in on 20K but it has been great. Besides the brake TSB that fixed the brake squeal for me, and the fuel rail recall the only thing I had done was two software updates which is IMO normal these days.

Excellent to hear this. Also still in the mid teens but so far so good. I have a bit of tire noise on my run flats but understand this common at 14k mil's.
Had sunroof adj do to annoying rattle. So far so good

Perfect history on 2017 Q7
2017 Q7 Premium Plus and just turned 100,000 miles.
What a great car.
I pull my trailers with it, I do 100 mph whenever I can, and it's a work vehicle that gets usage - not pampered from garage to garage. It's on the interstate, on Wisconsin county highways, city driving, construction sites, and Chicago traffic from time to time.
It's been to the Audi dealer every 10,000 miles for service and I change the oil every 5,000 miles in between dealer servicing. (Dealer service, not "a shop".......these cars are engineered machines that need to follow the schedule put down by people who know the most about them. I have no sympathy for the person who complains about issues when they take their vehicle to a non-Audi dealer mechanic.)
My Apple CarPlay does not register and that's okay. (I'm sure I turned something off in my phone or my kids changed the settings.) I never liked the Apple CarPlay anyway since I have a good map.
Tires - I get 50,000 miles out of my run flats.
Oil - don't use a drop between my 5,000 mile changes.
I go through windshields and floor mats. I also wash it regularly and polish it often.
Look great / runs great..........looking forward to the next 100,000 miles.

Using the Q7 like it was intended.

Did the windshield have to go to the Audi dealer to have the technology or cameras tuned? It may be an issue of which package is on the car but I have to replace my first windshield here shortly.

FWIW I just replaced mine at the dealership for $2,500 including wheel alignment and alignment of electronics/sensors. I also have HUD, so that may have added to the cost.
