2022 Audi A4 S LN Black ED 35TDI Mhev SA 2.0L Diesel · M40 UCY

The 2022 Audi A4 35TDI MHEV demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend over the past two MOT cycles, both tests passing without defects in January 2025 and January 2026. The most recent inspection on 2026-01-06 confirms no outstanding issues, though the 12-month interval between tests is standard. The absence of advisories or repeated failures suggests the vehicle has been maintained within DVSA’s baseline requirements, though this does not preclude hidden wear or deferred servicing beyond MOT scope. The recorded mileage of 53,337 miles over four years equates to approximately 13,334 miles annually, which is elevated for a vehicle of this age. This suggests consistent use rather than sporadic driving, potentially accelerating wear on high-mileage components such as suspension bushes, brake calipers, and drivetrain seals. The MOT history lacks intermediate tests to confirm whether servicing intervals were adhered to, but the high mileage per year implies the previous owner prioritised reliability over extended periods of inactivity. Given the lack of MOT-reported faults, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension system, particularly the rear bushes and coil springs, given the TDI’s tendency for premature wear. The MHEV hybrid system warrants verification of battery health and hybrid-specific wiring, as these are not MOT-tested. Brake discs and pads should be checked for uneven wear, especially if the vehicle has been driven hard, while the exhaust system should be scrutinised for leaks or corrosion, particularly around flanges. The high mileage also necessitates a thorough check of the turbocharger and intercooler for oil leaks or efficiency loss.
