Workshop service and repair coverage for the 2025 Audi RS5 Sportback, the RS-developed version of the five-door A5 body. The 2.9L turbocharged V6 is the centre of it — assembly and timing, charge-air and cooling, lubrication, fuel and ignition, exhaust and emissions — but an RS car is as much about what surrounds the engine, so the uprated brakes, the sport differential where fitted, the driveline and the RS-specific suspension hardware all carry their own procedures and torque values.

The engine code and trim naming above are carried forward from 2024, the most recent independently confirmed model year for this car. Audi's erWin parts portal lists the RS5 Sportback continuing into 2025, which is what confirms service data exists for the badge, so treat the trim structure and output for 2025 as subject to confirmation against your car's build data.
Known issues on the 2025 Audi RS5 Sportback. No recalls are on federal record for this model year, and no complaints are logged with NHTSA. Low-volume performance cars tend to stay off both records longer than mainstream models simply because there are fewer of them on the road, so check the VIN against NHTSA's lookup periodically rather than once. In service terms, the items worth watching on a car used the way this one invites are brake and tyre wear, driveline fluid condition, and the adaptation state of the transmission and chassis modules after any component change — all covered in the relevant sections.
Everything is written to workshop standard: step-by-step removal and refit, tightening sequences and torque figures, fluid and lubricant specifications, guided fault-finding with measuring values, and circuit-level wiring diagrams with connector views, so the diagnosis and the repair both come from the same source.
