Without changing airbag?? Which one do you have??

ALL Q5 SWs which have same functional buttons should be ok but with different airbag than yours..

My airbag is round and from photos of different wheels seems to be the bigger one.
Considering changing my wheel so wanting to know which of the other Audi models will.

What are you looking to change to? I have a 2016 Q5 and was thinking of swapping to the flat bottom purely for aesthetic reasons.

I was thinking of changing to a carbon flat bottom, but I'm struggling to find an SQ5 specific.

All Q5 models can fit these steering wheels
ALL PRE-FACELIFT models require an airbag
All post-facelift models with 4 spoke round steering wheels require an airbag
Pre-Facelift models will not have a functional iNav button

This also which I am retrofitting but I cannot find a cost worthy airbag. See the buttons all the same, however becareful of the part number as well. This steering wheel is not widely used I believe because not many with paddle shifts. Regarding perforated leather I am not fond of it. Favorite 5 from above, then semi perforated (1 3 and 4).

So what you're saying is that all those wheels will fit a pre-facelift Q/SQ5?

I like the RS4 wheel and it has the same shifters as my current wheel.

So I can look for an A/RS4 wheel and it will fit.

And what about airbag LazyPanda?? Is your the same?? Also note perforated leather is recycled leather and does not last long. Leather + perforated leather combi is much better

My current wheel.

I have what I think is the larger round airbag.

I don't mind the perforated leather. Prefer the feel of it.
