This is the OEM software used by VW/Audi dealerships (ElsaWin), so while we can’t officially confirm whether it’s on the VIV (Vehicle Identity Validation) pre-approved list in Victoria, it would honestly be surprising if it weren’t. This is the exact same repair documentation used by authorized repairers to carry out structural and mechanical repairs, so it meets or exceeds the level of detail usually required for roadworthy and compliance purposes.
As for engine coverage: yes, this manual includes full documentation for the 3.0L twin-turbo diesel engine used in your 2016 SQ5. The engine code is DEHA (2967cc, 250kW), and it is explicitly listed among the supported engine variants in the software. That means you’ll have access to all the procedures, torque specs, wiring diagrams, and component locations related to that powertrain.
So if you're working on getting your repairable write-off certified for re-registration, this is likely exactly what you'll need.
