Audi Q3 — TIMING CHAIN OR BELT?

MODEL LIST - (UPDATED 2023)

| Home / Audi / List of Audi Q3 Models without Timing Belt

The Audi Q3 is a compact SUV (C-segment in Europe) manufactured by the German marque Audi. It is built on the Volkswagen Group’s MQB platform, so it shares most of its components with the Seat Ateca, Skoda Karoq, and the VW Tiguan.

It emerged in 2011 and was at the time Audi’s smallest luxury SUV. Today, it is halfway between the Audi Q2 and the Audi Q5. There have been two generations of the Audi Q3 to date.
