2015 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · R31 YDE

The 2015 Audi Q3 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 6 February 2026 at 72,919 miles where the tester recorded no defects. This follows a clean pass on 12 May 2025 at 72,479 miles and an earlier pass on 23 May 2024 at 69,569 miles. The vehicle shows no escalating faults across the available record. The odometer sat at 61,922 miles for the May 2023 test, then rose to 69,567 miles by 16 May 2024, a near 7,650-mile gain in under a year, before a minor 2-mile increment to the retest two days later. Annual use then dropped to roughly 2,900 miles through May 2025 and under 450 miles to February 2026. At 72,919 miles over eleven years, the average of about 6,629 miles per year is typical, though the recent near-static mileage suggests extended standing periods that can age tyres, seals, and brake components without visible wear. The only blemish is a failed test on 16 May 2024 at 69,567 miles, yet the record lists no defects against that failure. The immediate pass on 23 May 2024 at 69,569 miles with no advisories implies the initial rejection concerned administrative or unlogged minor points rather than mechanical fault. No advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions appear anywhere in the chain. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the underbody for structural rust and check the suspension for perished bushes or coil spring fatigue given the low recent use. Verify brake caliper freedom and disc condition after the long idle, and confirm tyre sidewall integrity dated from standing. The clean MOT trail indicates prior owners kept statutory testing current, but sparse commentary means latent wear remains unexposed by the record alone.
