2020 AUDI Q52.0L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows the first sign of component wear with age. The most recent test in September 2025 at 21,476 miles resulted in an advisory for a split offside front lower suspension arm hydro bush. While this did not result in a failure, it indicates that the rubber components in the suspension geometry are beginning to degrade, marking a shift from the clean records seen in the previous two years. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,500 miles per year. Data shows consistent usage between the September 2023 test at 11,250 miles and the September 2024 test at 16,067 miles. This low-frequency usage suggests the car has likely been used for short trips, which often preserves the drivetrain and engine-internal components but can also lead to premature drying of rubber seals and corrosion on brake discs if the vehicle sits for extended periods between journeys. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension in person to determine if the worn hydro bush has affected the steering precision or caused uneven tyre wear. Given the low mileage, it is vital to check for brake corrosion on the rotors, as the pads may not have been used enough to keep the surfaces clean. The inspector should also look for age cracks in tyre sidewalls, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from flat spotting or rubber degradation despite high tread depth.
