2019 Audi A5 Sportback Service and Repair Manual
This 2019 Audi A5 Sportback factory service and repair manual is built around the exact 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder (engine code CYMC) and trim fitted to your car, so the torque values, wiring diagrams and procedures inside are the ones Audi actually published for this build rather than a generic A5 reference.

Known issues on the 2019 A5 Sportback. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers a rear axle alignment that may not have been checked after an earlier lock-nut repair, and uneven or premature tire wear from the misalignment raises the risk of a crash. The second covers that same trailing-arm lock nut on the rear axle, which can break from stress corrosion and misalign the axle, leading to a loss of control. The third covers the seat heater cable feeding the Passenger Occupant Detection System, where a contact fault can cause the system to wrongly disable the passenger air bag. Owners have filed 12 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
Whether you're inspecting the rear axle hardware, verifying the passenger air bag circuit, or working through a routine service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2019 A5 Sportback.
