AUDI Q52009 · 2.0L Diesel

The 2009 Audi Q5 presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 24 March 2026 at 140,593 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. Prior tests in November 2024, November 2023, and November 2022 also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed test on 18 November 2022 at 107,797 miles, reversed the next day with a pass at identical mileage and no defects logged. This suggests a minor administrative or retest correction rather than a mechanical fault left unresolved. Annual mileage sits around 8,270 miles, typical for a 17-year-old vehicle. The record shows steady accumulation: 107,797 miles in November 2022, 119,016 by November 2023, 129,012 by November 2024, and 140,593 by March 2026. The gap between the November 2024 and March 2026 tests is slightly longer than twelve months but within permissible limits. No rapid accumulation or long dormant periods appear in the data. The clean advisory history across four years implies the previous owner kept on top of consumables and avoided presenting the car with worn tyres or failing emissions. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and mileage. The MOT record flags no corrosion or structural integrity issues, yet 140,593 miles on a 2009 chassis invites fatigue in subframe mounts and anti-roll bar linkages not always caught in a visual test. Verify the 18 November 2022 failure reason via the DVSA portal, as the supplied extract lists no defects. Confirm in person that the four-wheel alignment, caliper operation, and exhaust emissions match the clean test profile before purchase.
