What to know about the Q5L battery
With a Q5L, the question we get most is "where is the battery?" It is under the boot floor, which means you unload the boot before the job. If you can, clear the luggage area before the technician arrives and the job goes faster.
The Q5L is a long-wheelbase version, mostly built for the Chinese market. Some reach the UAE as private imports. The battery and coding process match the standard-wheelbase car, though we confirm the part against the chassis number.

- The engine turns over more slowly on the first start of the day
- "Low battery" or "Electrical system" messages in the instrument cluster
- MMI or interior lights switch off sooner than they used to
- The battery is more than two UAE summers old
Audi Q5L battery questions
Short answers. Anything else — WhatsApp us.
Where is the battery on an Q5L?
Under the floor panel in the luggage compartment, beside or beneath the spare wheel. You will find jump-start posts under the bonnet for boosting, which is why many owners never see the battery itself.
Does an Q5L need coding after a battery change?
Yes. Both generations use energy management that tracks the battery's age. We register the new battery's capacity and type on site.
How fast can you replace an Audi battery in Dubai?
The nearest van usually reaches you in 20 to 35 minutes in Dubai, a little longer in outer Abu Dhabi and Sharjah. Fitting and coding take 25 to 45 minutes depending on where the battery sits in your model.
Does an Audi need battery coding after replacement?
Most Audis built from around 2008 do. The car's energy management has to be told a new battery is fitted, with its capacity and type. We do this on site with a diagnostic tool as part of the fitting.
