General Repair Information

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2022 Audi SQ5, 2022 Audi Q5 e, 2022 Audi Q5, 2021 Audi SQ5, and 2021 Audi Q5 e. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Hairline cracks on the brake rotor friction surface are often noticed during brake repairs. Hairline cracks up to 10 mm long are not a technical flaw and do not justify a brake rotor replacement.
Brake rotors and brake pads that have a worn through friction surface should be replaced.
