2006 Audi A4 Avant SE TDI 140 2.0L Diesel · KEZ 8869

The 2006 Audi A4 Avant SE TDI 140 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 1 March 2025 at 198,816 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the three prior successful tests from February 2023 through February 2024 also returned clean sheets. The only blemish is a failure on 30 January 2023 at 177,140 miles, which the DVSA log shows with no defects recorded, indicating an administrative or unclassified rejection rather than a mechanical fault. The owner cleared it within days, passing on 4 February 2023 at 177,168 miles. Annual mileage sits at roughly 9,941 per year against the 198,816 total, typical for a twenty-year-old estate. The record shows a clean and consistent pattern between 2021 and 2025, with the car covering about 38,822 miles across those four years. A gap exists between the 10 November 2021 test at 159,994 miles and the January 2023 failure at 177,140 miles, where no 2022 test appears, but the mileage progression is steady rather than sporadic. No rapid accumulation or long-standing periods are evident from the logged figures. No advisories or defects touching suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions appear in any test. The absence of flagged wear suggests the previous keeper addressed consumables before each examination or the vehicle remained within limits. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody rust given the age and 198,816 miles, as MOT passes at this mileage do not certify component life remaining. Verify the timing belt and dual-mass flywheel history on the 2.0 TDI unit, since neither shows on the MOT record yet both carry failure risk at this age. Check for worn suspension arms and leaking dampers during a road test, and confirm the 2023 failure cause with the prior owner's paperwork to rule out any suppressed defect.
