2020 AUDI Q83.0L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a worsening maintenance trend regarding consumable components and suspension wear. While the 2025-11-14 test at 47,874 miles resulted in a pass, the tester flagged multiple advisories including a worn front suspension arm bush, thinning rear brake pads, and lipped front brake discs. These issues follow a pattern of degradation seen in the previous year. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with typical usage for a 2020 vehicle. The car covered 14,580 miles between the August 2023 test and the November 2024 test, and a further 15,181 miles by the November 2025 test. This averages approximately 7,500 to 7,900 miles per year, suggesting regular road use rather than long periods of inactivity. The absence of defects in the 2023 test at 18,113 miles indicates the vehicle was in a high state of repair early in its life, but recent records show a transition toward deferred maintenance on wear items. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system and front suspension. The recurring advisories for brake linings and discs in both the 2024 and 2025 tests suggest that the braking components are nearing the end of their service life and likely require replacement. The tester specifically noted a worn thrust arm bush in the most recent inspection, which can lead to degraded handling and steering precision if left unaddressed. Beyond the brakes and suspension, the 2024 test highlighted both front tyres being worn close to the legal limit. Although no tyre advisories appeared in the 2025 record, the history of uneven tyre wear suggests the owner should verify the current tread depth and check for any signs of misalignment or incorrect camber. The mechanical profile indicates a vehicle that is currently roadworthy but requires imminent investment in consumables to maintain its condition.
