2002 Audi A4 TDI SE 1.9L Diesel · WKZ 5031

The Audi A4 TDI SE presents as roadworthy on the most recent evidence, with the August 2025 test at 292,596 miles returning a pass and no defects logged. The maintenance trend is stable across the recorded history, showing no worsening faults or recurring advisories. Three consecutive annual passes from 2022 to 2025 with clean sheets indicate the vehicle has met minimum statutory standards without escalation of mechanical concern. At 292,596 miles on a 2002 registration, the car has covered roughly 12,200 miles per year, which is high for its age but consistent rather than sporadic. The record shows steady annual accumulation: 279,479 miles in August 2022, 285,768 at the August 2023 pass, 290,498 in August 2024, and 292,596 in August 2025. A two-day gap in late August 2023 saw a fail at 285,696 miles followed by a pass at 285,768, yet no defects were recorded against either entry, leaving the reason for the failure undocumented in the supplied data. Given the sparse and clean MOT history, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural corrosion on sills, subframes, and suspension mounting points, as a 24-year-old high-mileage diesel will commonly exhibit hidden rust not captured by a pass result. The drivetrain, including turbo, clutch, and gearbox, has absorbed nearly 293,000 miles and warrants scrutiny for wear beyond MOT scope. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs should be physically checked for fatigue despite no advisories being raised. The undocumented 2023 failure justifies verifying the vehicle's full paper trail and confirming the rectification carried out before purchase.
