2013 Audi Q5 2.0L Diesel · WJ04 BEN

The 2025-11-13 MOT at 131,324 miles passed, confirming current roadworthiness, and the record shows a stable maintenance trend with no failures since 2016. Recurring advisories on rear sub‑frame corrosion, brake pad wear and tyre condition indicate consistent but not intensive use, and the vehicle has not shown a worsening pattern over the past five years. The most recent test therefore reflects routine upkeep rather than neglect. The mileage of 131,324 miles over 13 years averages about 10,100 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a 2013 model. There are no large gaps in the annual mileage; the 2022 test at 93,543 miles follows a steady increase from the 2021 reading of 85,524 miles, and the 2025 figure represents a further 39,997‑mile increment over three years. This suggests the car has been driven regularly without long periods of standing. A buyer should therefore focus on the rear sub‑frame rust noted in 2022 and 2025, inspect the condition of the rear brake pads and discs for excessive wear or scoring, and verify tyre tread depth and edge wear, all of which have been flagged repeatedly. The exhaust centre sleeve clamp corrosion and rear fog lamp defect, while advisory, merit visual checks for structural integrity. Finally, examine the rear suspension bushes and any front drive‑shaft CV joint condition, as previous tests recorded perishing bushes and split boots that could affect handling.
