re: What is your experience with an Audi Q7, a BMW X5 or similar Mercedes?

We have a 2019 19 q7 that we bought CPO in 2020. We have the 3.0 engine. It’s my wife’s daily driver but I drive it when we are going out as a family. I also say that it is a wonderful vehicle all around. Great safety features, like preparing for impact if it thinks someone is going to rear end you.

It is a road trip machine, very quiet on interstate, kids will sleep for hours. Power plant is great.

Nothing major has broken on it, but we did have the differential replaced under warranty this past month because it would vibrate on tight radius corners. My biggest complaint about maintenance is the dealership shop itself. Incredibly slow as in 2 days for an oil change when you scheduled it 3 weeks prior. We are under warranty til January 2025 so I have to deal with it for now.

Every time I drive it, I feel like it is money well spent
