2013 Audi Q5 2.0L Diesel · AUD 123A

The vehicle presents in a roadworthy condition, having passed its most recent MOT in February 2026 at 82,456 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable following a corrective action period in early 2024. The subsequent clean passes over the last year indicate that the current owner is proactive in addressing mechanical requirements before they escalate into further test failures. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,300 miles per annum. There is a notable increase of 8,565 miles recorded between February 2024 and February 2025, followed by roughly 3,000 miles leading up to the February 2026 test. This low annual mileage suggests the car has been used sparingly, which typically reduces wear on drivetrain components and suspension, but can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components over time. The failure in February 2024 at 70,863 miles provides specific insight into areas requiring physical inspection. The tester flagged both the nearside and offside front outer constant velocity boots as split, alongside rear brake pads worn below the 1.5mm limit. While these issues were rectified to allow the subsequent pass, a buyer should inspect the drive shafts for any grease leakage or clicking noises during tight turns to indicate joint failure. Given the age of the vehicle, a close look at the condition of the suspension bushes and any presence of corrosion on the underbody is advisable, as these were not highlighted in the recent MOT advisories.
