What to know about the A5 battery
Many A5 owners in the UAE keep the car as a weekend drive. That is the worst pattern for a battery: long idle periods, then short trips. If yours sits for days at a time, the battery will show it before anything else does, usually with start-stop switching itself off.
Where is the battery on an Audi A5?
The A5 shares its layout with the A4, so the battery is usually under the luggage compartment floor. On Cabriolet and Sportback versions the trim around it differs slightly.

Audi A5 battery questions
Short answers. Anything else — WhatsApp us.
My A5 sits for a week at a time. Is that why the battery died?
It is a likely cause. The car draws a small current while parked. A healthy battery copes for two to three weeks, an older one may not manage five days. A test will show whether it needs replacing or just charging.
Can you change a A5 battery in a basement car park?
Yes. The battery is in the boot, so we only need space to open the tailgate fully. Basement jobs are routine for us.
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.
