2004 Audi A6 1.9L Diesel · PK54 AEL

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a pass on 13 November 2025 at 179,156 miles. The overall maintenance trend appears exceptionally stable. No defects or advisories have been recorded across the last four years of testing, suggesting a consistent standard of mechanical upkeep. A failure on 11 November 2025 was resolved within two days, though the record lacks specific detail on the cause of that failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's 22-year age. Between November 2022 at 172,684 miles and November 2023 at 173,122 miles, the car covered only 438 miles. This low usage continued into December 2024, where the odometer read 173,490 miles. A significant increase in activity occurred between December 2024 and November 2025, with the vehicle covering 5,666 miles in less than a year. Despite the clean MOT history, the age and mileage necessitate a physical inspection of high-wear components. The lack of recorded advisories is unusual for a 2004 model, so a buyer should specifically check for structural corrosion on the sills and suspension mounting points. The sudden increase in annual mileage suggests the drivetrain and suspension bushes have faced renewed stress recently. Priority should be given to inspecting the condition of the brake discs and pads, as well as checking for oil leaks from the engine and gearbox. While the DVSA records show no failures, the absence of noted wear on consumables over several years may indicate that the vehicle was under-utilised for a long period, which can lead to perished rubber seals or seized calipers.
