AUDI A52007 · 3.0L DIESEL

The most recent MOT on 2025-10-29 showed the vehicle passed with no defects recorded, but this followed a failure just two days earlier on 2025-10-27. The failure cited nearside front tyre tread below the 1.6mm legal limit and offside front tyre worn close to the limit. These issues suggest the tyres were not replaced promptly, as the same tyre-related defects appeared in earlier MOTs. Recurring mechanical patterns include tyre wear and suspension component degradation. Multiple MOTs from 2023 to 2025 noted all four tyres worn close to legal limits, with nearside front suspension arm bushes showing consistent wear. While these were classified as non-urgent (no excessive movement), repeated mentions indicate ongoing wear that could worsen over time. The 2024-10-24 failure also highlighted a nearside rear tyre with exposed ply, a more severe issue than typical tread wear. The trend shows stability in critical defects but highlights persistent tyre and suspension concerns. The 2025-10-29 pass suggests the owner addressed immediate issues, but the proximity of the failure and pass implies the vehicle may have been driven with compromised tyres for some time. The mileage of 154,805 miles (about 8,148 per year) aligns with typical usage for a 19-year-old vehicle, though the 5,237-mile increase between 2024 and 2025 is slightly below average.
