2013 Audi A5 2.0L Diesel · W77 RAH

When inspecting this vehicle, buyers should demand a comprehensive invoice record to verify what remedial work was actually carried out following the February 2025 MOT failure. Specifically, check whether the front shock absorbers, front brake discs, wheel bearing, and drag link components noted during the failure were fully replaced or merely patched up. Negotiate hard on the price, keeping in mind the ongoing advisories for worn suspension bushes and thin brake pads noted on the latest pass.

Verify the service history for regular oil changes and timing belt replacements, as the 2.0-litre diesel engine requires diligent maintenance at this mileage. Check all steering components carefully for the 'noisy steering rack' reported in the 2025 MOT failure record, as steering repairs on the Audi A5 can prove costly if neglected.

This blue 2013 Audi A5 diesel has covered 135,368 miles across its life, averaging approximately 10,800 miles per year, which places it above the national average for this model. The MOT record shows a complex path: a pass in 2022 with shock absorber misting, a pass in 2023 with persistent suspension bush advisories, and a substantial failure in February 2025 involving front brakes, suspension arm ball joints, wheel bearings, and steering components. Although it secured a pass four days after that failure following remedial work, multiple advisories for worn suspension bushes, thin brake pads, and a worn tyre were recorded on the passing certificate.
