AWE Touring exhaust for 3.0T - any fitment issues?

[MarkFank]

I spoke to a local shop and they stated that the have had fitment issues with AWE exhausts but he has not done one for the Q5. He is very pro Milltek but I don't want to do the quad tip and SQ5 valence. For those that have done the AWE, did you have any fitment issues? Thanks for any feedback. RIght now, the plan is to do exhaust and H&R springs.

nope no issues, just takes a few minutes to get the tips aligned right.

w/ downpipes












fyi- milltek exhaust was designed for 3.0TDI engine of euro SQ5's

I had slight fitment issues with my AWE non res downpipe exhaust. The entire system kept shifting to the right and rubbing on the rear valance.

Just fixed it the other day. Had to saw off a bit of the pipe on the passenger side to help it stay center. So far it hasn't shifted. Overall it's just a slight annoyance, as the sound is totally worth the time to adjust the clamps every once in a while. Just my 2¢

AWE has a lot of adjustment but with patience can be adjusted just fine.

I had a shop install that does lots of Audi's exhausts and the tech did a number of adjustments while tightened up components and it fit like a glove. It wasn't just an install and tighten once. The down pipes were a little tight but even there it all went together and its been rattle / rub free since it went on early last summer. Just excellent sounds.
