Hello from Scotland!
3 Audi's - fancied a change and a move from Sporty/Saloon's to a higher/4x4 type..
X6 and X5 were tried and tested...loved the X6 but I think the novelty would have worn off and I plan to keep this for 3-4 years so went with X5.
3 month old, Ex demo 40d m Sport with 5 year/50k service plan.
2000 miles on clock when I picked it up
Thought it was the 5 seat version...when I got to dealer (found it online) it was 7 seater but still went for it - have no need for 7 seats but maybe easier to sell when time comes.. we shall see.

Some questions for you experts...
Cant remember exactly which one but of the 2 headlight rings one on each side never lights up ie what I would say is the central bit never fires up - is this normal - Sidelights its just the outside lit up, full lights its one of them, full beams it changes the one that's already on - fog lights are LED and below.
Maybe this is how it is meant to be but seems odd to have the two shapes but only one lights up?
Is it possible to make the remote lock also fold mirrors without having to be held? this was an option with Audi in car settings - have read it needs to be programmed? is this a BMW thing and do they charge for it?
Has anyone managed to get android/Spotify integration to work - online seems to say "coming soon" but I was disappointed to find that only streaming via blue-tooth works which means cover-art and full browsing etc isn't possible?
Can someone explain the deadlock side of things? In every other car I have had - one click on key locks, second click deadlocks.. noticed with this car that second click didnt do anything... so sat in car...locked car...then I could still open car from inside - which to me makes me thing doors dont deadlock ie if someone smashed window on locked car they could open door from inside? is this the case?
Does the steering wheel lock? again during my "security testing" above - I noticed that when I turn ignition of, steering wheel doesn't seem to lock and again when I locked myself in car - it still didn't seem to lock.
Again different from other cars I have had
Eco>Comfor>Sport - Is their any impact or change in using Eco - I dont see any real change in economy other than throttle response numbs a little - but other than that numbers dont change interms of MPG etc - am I missing something?
Is there anyway to stop air system starting everytime I get in car?
My auto dip/kerb view mirror seems to have stopped dipping when I put car in reverse - any ideas why? I have checked and selector is still set to left/passenger side
Is there a way to make boot openable without using boot release on door or key? I have tried to unlock/open with my hand when standing at it, but I need to either hit unlock on key then use my hand on boot button/lid or use the boot release on key - just wondered again if there was a setting anywhere for this?
I noticed "add Blu" tank/capacity - never heard of it before - done some reading - what happens if it runs out and I am driving/unable to have it filled again? does car still work?
I have read something about grill color on 40dm Sport not being right on orders - is the silver/titanium that I have the right factory option?
Think that's it for now... appreciate you taking time to reply if you can help equally if you have any questions on the car - happy to answer if I can.
