Audi Q5 2016 Bulb Size
Bulb size chart
This 2016 Audi Q5 bulb size guide helps you verify the correct bulbs by lighting position, so you can replace only what you need with more confidence. Whether you are changing a headlight, a license plate lamp, or an interior bulb, matching the bulb to the exact location is the easiest way to avoid mistakes.
The Q5 can use different lighting setups depending on trim, market, and package, so the same model year may not share every bulb across all versions. Use this page as a practical reference for the 2016 Audi Q5 and compare the bulb type listed for each position before ordering replacements.
For best fitment, always confirm whether your Q5 has halogen or LED equipment, since some exterior lamps and front fog light setups can vary with factory lighting packages. Aftermarket LED conversions may fit physically but still differ in beam pattern, brightness, or warning behavior, so it is smart to compare the installed bulb and connector before buying. If possible, remove the old bulb first and check its marking, because trim and body-style differences can change the correct fitment even within the same 2016 Audi Q5 model year.
