Hi.
My 1st post as a new member
I'm looking at getting a Q5 2.0 tdi but have read about the oil pump drive failure on some of these engines and was wondering if anyone can tell me if the earlier q5's were affected..?
The info I've read so far suggests that anything built before Feb 2010 could have the weaker 77mm hexagonal drive that is prone to failing. Can it be determined by engine or chassis number..?
Any help or advice much appreciated
