2010 Audi A3 Sport TDI 1.6L Diesel · BFZ 4016

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by the clean pass on 24 August 2025 at 115,773 miles. This recent result showed no defects, indicating that any mechanical issues identified in previous tests have been addressed. While the history shows instances of failure in 2022 and 2025, the subsequent successful passes without advisories suggest the current owner is proactive in maintaining the vehicle to meet minimum legal and safety standards. At 115,773 miles, the Audi has averaged approximately 7,236 miles per year over its sixteen year life, which aligns with typical usage for a diesel hatchback of this age. The data shows a consistent usage pattern between November 2022 and August 2025, where the car covered roughly 15,400 miles. This thirty-month interval suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to long periods of stationary-related-related neglect, though the relatively low annual mileage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid seals as the vehicle ages. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking system, as these are the most likely areas to show of age despite the clean MOT history. Given the failures at 100,265 and 113,091 miles, a thorough check for worn control arm bushes, leaking shock absorbers, and binding calipers is necessary. The structural integrity should also be verified specifically for corrosion on the sills and rear mounting points, as these areas are common failure points for this generation of Audi regardless of the recorded mileage.
