2012 Audi A7 3.0L Diesel · J800 AAP

The most recent MOT test completed on 22 November 2024 resulted in a pass with no recorded defects. Evaluating the overall maintenance trend, the vehicle appears to be in a stable condition, though the history shows a period of concern in late 2023 when advisories were issued. The fact that the 2024 test returned a clean sheet suggests that the previously noted oil leak and tyre degradation were either professionally rectified or have reached a state of stability that does not currently impact roadworthiness. With 122,861 miles covered over its fourteen-year lifespan, the vehicle has averaged approximately 8,776 miles per year. This represents typical, moderate usage for a premium saloon, suggesting the car has been driven regularly enough to prevent excessive component seizure but not so heavily as to cause premature drivetrain exhaustion. At this mileage, while the usage profile is healthy, you must remain mindful of the natural wear progression on consumables such as suspension bushes, shock absorbers, and various rubber seals which are nearing the end of their typical service life. During your physical inspection, you should pay particular attention to the engine bay and undercarriage to confirm the oil leak advisory from 2023 is truly resolved. Look for fresh or weeping-weeping oil residue on the ability tos, the rocker cover, or the engine block to ensure no active leaking is-is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is is inner sidewall cracking. inner sidewall cracking. inner sidewall cracking. inner sidewall cracking. inner sidewall cracking. inner sidewall cracking. inner sidewall cracking. inner sidewall cracking. inner sidewall cracking.
