2010 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · WIG 4128

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 9 April 2026 at 184,236 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows a pattern of reactive rather than preventative care. Recent failures on 9 April 2026 for headlamp aim and a discoloured indicator were minor, but they follow a history of failing on basic consumables and wear items. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the car, averaging roughly 11,515 miles per year. There are no significant gaps in the testing history, and the mileage progressed steadily from 96,622 miles in May 2015 to the current 184,236 miles. This consistent usage suggests the car has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often causes different sets of mechanical issues. A buyer should closely inspect the suspension and chassis. The record reveals a recurring problem with coil springs, with an offside rear failure in March 2021 and a nearside rear failure in April 2024. Furthermore, the front suspension has been a persistent point of wear; the April 2022 and April 2023 tests both flagged worn upper suspension arm bushes, and the 2023 test specifically noted a severely deteriorated lower ball joint dust cover. Attention should also be paid to the braking system and tyres. The March 2021 failure noted a pitted and scored nearside front brake disc, and tyre tread issues appeared in February 2020, March 2021, and April 2024. While these are consumables, the frequency of these failures suggests the previous owner often waited for the MOT test to identify necessary replacements. A physical check of the suspension bushings and brake disc thickness is recommended to ensure these components have been properly renewed.
