A single ABS sensor being disconnected (in this case melted wires) will likely cause most of those dash warnings. I think you'll be able to get that issue sorted without too much trouble.
As an owner of regular 3.0 TDI Q5 this is my next dream daily car! It is a hell of a ride! And most important it has tiptronic transmission instead of S-tronic (DSG) gearbox. Looking forward for the next videos! Greetings from Slovakia :)
Nice sq5! Love the colour/ spec. Hope it isn't too complicated a fix to get it back on the road. 👌 I have tbr same engine but in a c7 allroad running stage 1. It is such an impressive engine. Sounds more like a small block v8 than a diesel, due to the active exhausts. 😂😁
Ha. You are rebuilding a car like mine 😁 really enjoy the diversity on your channel. I have a MK2 Octavia VRS and SQ5 Plus and so I enjoy this content 👍
Guess you need to replace the suspension components on the burnt side. With the harness and panel damage it’s a big job… you can do it, just hope it was cheap enough mate 👍
He from durham dean 😍😍😍 am in love to that much of a degree it hurts man lol that interior ""DING DONG😍 "" hope not as bad as looks and hope nothing lived or gronded out modules 😢😳 good luck mate thanks for your time and see you soon cant wait 👍👍👋
I have the Q5 w\ 3.2 FSI 7spd DSG S-Line. After years of jokes about expensive repairs my mate got the SQ5 with same interior. They just keep pulling when accelerating, great motors. Dont yet know how Ill get the update passed the wife though. Good luck, Ill sure be watching.
Just to help you out....everyone that just went straight to ebay to check prices now owes you a tenner😁 Best of luck with this one sir. I think there will be a great deal of interest on what sort of work is required for fire damage.
Can’t wait for the tear down. Will you have to replace a radar sensor and recalibrate. I would be cool to see a calibration. Cool to see electrical issue (back probing) been diagnosed and repaired.
Why did they manhandle it with a fork lift truck when it runs and drives?! Surely those fork lift blades are liable to do a load of damage to plastic undertrays, bottom edges of bumpers etc. I seem to remember they wrecked the bumper on that polo GTi you fixed up a while back. I guess they just dgaf once you've paid?
Get it in the workshop, strip the whole front end and whip the engine out so you can assess/repair accordingly. Let the dog see the rabbit! I personally think you have got off lightly.
That's a lot of money to be spending on a salvage car without doing a pre inspection in person before you bid. But that is one cracking looking car, when it is all sorted it will be lovely. Going off just Copart pictures is a gamble most the time.
Burnt wiring.. not good, as it could of tracked back thru (heated the entire harness) replace the lot would be my advice save any gremlins later on down the line 👍

You should get the black roof lining too. Weird that such a high spec car doesn’t have it already.
After watching many of your videos, you’ll have that sorted in a few weeks MOT’ed and good to go. Looking forward to seeing the end product.
Hopefully!
These are a great car, would love to own one. The damage is not too bad. You've got this. Will be glued watching this
Thanks mate!
Best colour, best spec SQ5 possible right there ! Well done, I think that is a wise buy.

Watching with great interest, just the kind of thing I enjoy, good luck getting it fixed for (relatively) cheap!
Great looking car Dean, looking forward to seeing you get this one back on the road.
Finally, ive been waiting for you to get this car. I have one just like it. The gasoline TFSI super charged. I'll be following closely.
Great buy for you and sure it will get sorted rapid. Nice car. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
"Be gentle for christsake"... I know the feeling when you have done your shopping and the teller is throwing your food around
I once dealt with similar scorch damage from a large Firework which landed trapped under the wiper arms.
They are beaitiful cars - I had one just like that. Worth a fortune - and the colour is amazing :). You'll so enjoy it
Didn't know this version of the Q5, looks mega!! In your hands this will be a sunday job and you'll have a great daily.
Keep up the great work Dean! 🙌🏻
Thanks !
Wow, what a fantastic car, love the colour, damage might not be to bad, really looking forward to this one, Great car Dean.
Interesting project, look forward to it 👍😎
What a beautiful car - added to the bucket list. Thanks Sue 😀👍
Looks like a great car , very jealous hope the damage isn't too much. Can't wait for the next video on it.
She looks great Dean, hopefully it won't be too bad under the wing, the next video should be interesting 👍👍
Hi dean congratulations on reaching 66,300 and you will soon be at 66,500 subscribers and well done for all your continued hard work as always

Yeah think once you sort the melted wiring all the faults will disappear 👍👍👍 looks sweet as mate 😆
Buzzing for this Audi series, keep up the great work!

He's gone and done it again 👀🔥 this is a clean looking car with high specs though looking forward to watching this one
Just wonder how much underneath damage is caused by the copart guys and their forklifts?
Very poor show TBH .
Really looking forward to this one. My mate took me out in his mapped SQ5, it went well and sounded great. Good luck
Yeah they remap to around 400hp. But they have 515ft torque standard!!
Beautiful daily Dean,
Exactly what I’ve been looking at myself lately for the Mr’s and obviously has to be sepang blue!!
I’m envious 😫
Looking forward to the next update looks like a nice project.
Nice looking car. Fire damage can be tricky to fix so fingers crossed this one isn't too bad!

Good luck, Ill sure be watching.
Really looking forward to this build

Best of luck with this one sir. I think there will be a great deal of interest on what sort of work is required for fire damage.
Love it dean, I want one of these myself... Best of luck with it 👍
Thanks 😊
Looks great! Let’s hope it’s not too bad!!
That's a great looking car, love that colour 😎 I hope the repairs are simple and cheap 👍
That forklift driver needs a slap
This is definitely going to be interesting. Should make a brilliant Daily driver though at the end of it as you say. 😀
Hi dean hope you and the family have had a good weekend
I was bidding on this but went for too much. Good luck for the repair. Those seats 👌
Great video. Lovely car. Hope there's no nasty surprises!
Absolute beauty, cracking family car that.
Can’t wait for the tear down. Will you have to replace a radar sensor and recalibrate. I would be cool to see a calibration. Cool to see electrical issue (back probing) been diagnosed and repaired.
Awesome looking car easily sorted by a bloke of your talents
Nice moter, best luck. The burn on wing looks a bit like the ghostbusters logo
Nice project car, and super content for the channel
Nice buy mate I've always wanted one of these 🙌
Beautiful car bud looking forward for next upload. This one could b abit of a headache hopefully not expensive tho 🙏👍
Hi dean it looks really nice and it sells quickly for you once you finished it and hope you make a good profit on it
Good luck it looks a wonderful car. 👍👍

I guess they just dgaf once you've paid?
I was thinking the same thing. I think they are expecting it to be broken up
damn i love this guy's content ! dude can you please think of selling your fixed car with tickets online ?
Get it in the workshop, strip the whole front end and whip the engine out so you can assess/repair accordingly.
Let the dog see the rabbit!
I personally think you have got off lightly.
Nice one Dean I’ve got a q5 great motor looking forward to seeing the next video 👍
B8.5>B9 in my opinion
Relatively easy fix when compared to the last RS, at least she drives!
Mate had one of these in grey, rapid but it drank like a fish 🐟 just noticed its the tdi when you opened the bonnet👍
Nice car hopefully an easy fix, black headliner would really add to the interior!
My dad has an sq5 there so nice to drive perfect daily
Looking forward to this one
Shouldn't be a problem for you dean👍👍
About time co part. Let us view again. Sharks 🦈
Gonna be a stunning motor
Wiring fault cause the fire? Looks like it started in the arch.
That's a lot of money to be spending on a salvage car without doing a pre inspection in person before you bid. But that is one cracking looking car, when it is all sorted it will be lovely. Going off just Copart pictures is a gamble most the time.
Beautiful car. Worth the effort to get that back on the road…
Nice buy if you have not paid over the odds. Look Nice on the out side and nice seats.
Did you ever do a finale to the sq5 rebuild Dean? Can’t see it anywhere
Like these best paint spec too
I've never liked the Q version Audi type. But that is a NICE motor Dean...!!! Hope it's a quick fix mate.
Looking forward to this one !!
Definitely an abs sensor bringing up the faults on the dash, especially start / stop, Done the same with my motor
Love the Car you took the Brave Pil . Stip her and let's see what the depth of this one is . Colour is awesome 👌
I did indeed! 🤣
Never do things by halves matey, think it could be a cracking motor if you can get the parts second hand.
Beautiful Audi!
What happened to the blue Golf?
Nice machine pal my mate use to have one few years ago 👍
Nice motor 😎👍
This car is stunning
Beautiful car , hopefully it will not be too bad under that o/s front wing.
Me too 🥶
Good luck. Hopefully it’s not too messy
Me too 😂
Dam nice car hopefully no to much needs done . And be amazing daily
Lovely car 🤩 i used to have one
Can we see the underneath if the forks from the fork lift has done damage!
Good luck 👍👍👍
Kin savage how they handle them
Lovely looking car
Nice purchase!
Hey Dean how much are you looking to get for the Skoda Octavia vrs?
Good luck Dean
She's a beauty! 👌💙
seems to say that copart and you doing checks with car vertical is useless if youve been scammed again
look a nice motor this is going to good!
Nice car love the colour you nead some second hand parts to keep the cost down!!!!
Already ordered some! And surprising dealer was cheap!
Great video,it’s a Audi,so I know your in your element.car is good looking,I’m sure it will be great,when your done 👍👍👍😎😎😎
Burnt wiring.. not good, as it could of tracked back thru (heated the entire harness) replace the lot would be my advice save any gremlins later on down the line 👍
