Hi all,

Wondering if this is a fair deal? I found a 2014 Q5 TDI S Line package with 133k at a local private dealer here in CA. They have it listed for 14,940 and out the door price at 17,300.
Will go back today and ask for service records, anything in particular I should be concerned about with a Q5 at this mileage? My main concern is DPF crack issue.

Thanks in advance!

There are just too many to list....
Never known of or seen one of the V6 TDIs crack a DPF. Big issue with those is all the oil and coolant leaks that they eventually have, mostly underneath the intake in the valley.

Unless it was "fixed" late in life, the warranty expired recently (the main reason you see these pop up for sale). By that point it should have had at least one trans fluid change (Audi insists it's lifetime - no such thing!!!).

Price doesn't sound ridiculous. I use AutoTempest.com: All the cars. One search. Whenever I'm shopping or for price comparisons

That isn't a terrible price, about average. My sister just got a 2014 Q5 with 138k miles for $13,900 it has the B&O sound, heated and cooled seats, heated and cooled cup holder, tow package, and etc.
The most common issues I see is the oil and coolant leaks from the valley.

Seems reasonable.... you can't really compare markets in different countries and\or geo zones, but as a comparison, I just put down a downpayment on a "similar" '14 A6 for an almost identical price, with ~85.5k on the clock...
