AUDI A62014 · 2.0L Diesel

The 2014 Audi A6’s most recent MOT on 2025-10-20 at 101,217 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but the preceding test on 2025-10-17 at 101,005 miles failed without recorded defects. This pattern of alternating passes and failures within days suggests potential inconsistencies in testing or unresolved issues. The 2024-10-04 tests at 85,014 miles also showed a pass and failure on the same date, further complicating the trend. While the latest test indicates compliance, the frequency of failures raises concerns about the vehicle’s reliability and the consistency of its maintenance. The vehicle’s mileage of 101,217 miles over 12 years equates to approximately 8,435 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for its age. However, the jump from 73,287 miles in 2023 to 85,014 miles in 2024 and 101,005 miles in 2025 suggests accelerated wear, particularly on consumables like tyres, brakes, and suspension components. The lack of defects in the latest tests does not preclude underlying issues, as minor faults may have been addressed post-test. The absence of structural or mechanical advisories in the record is positive, but the vehicle’s age and mileage warrant scrutiny of its drivetrain and corrosion resistance. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as well as the brake calipers and discs for binding or uneven wear. The exhaust system and emissions compliance should also be verified, given the recent failure. Despite the latest pass, the recurring test inconsistencies and the vehicle’s age necessitate a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm its mechanical integrity and resolve any unresolved issues flagged in the MOT history.
