The 2016 Audi Q2 1.4 TFSI COD is a stylish and well-built compact SUV with excellent reliability, boasting a 93% MOT pass rate. The 1.4-litre TFSI engine with cylinder deactivation is refined and efficient, though the water pump and thermostat housing are known to fail earlier than expected, requiring timely replacement. The infotainment system can occasionally glitch or lag, and brake disc wear is a common expense. Overall, the Q2 is a solid and dependable choice in the premium subcompact SUV segment.
