2017 AUDI Q32.0L Diesel

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a shift towards minor wear components as the car ages. The most recent test in July 2025 at 61,778 miles passed despite noted defects regarding perishing and cracking on both the nearside front and rear tyres. This suggests that the rubber is degrading due to age rather than tread wear, a common occurrence on vehicles with lower annual mileage that still require attention to maintain safety. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-useage vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. The record shows a steady progression from 30,486 miles in 2021 to 61,778 miles in 2025. There are no significant gaps in testing that would suggest long periods of neglect, though the lack of clean records between 2021 and 2022 indicates the vehicle was in a pristine mechanical state before beginning to show signs of age in rubber-related components. A buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension geometry. The August 2023 test at 46,803 miles flagged worn bushes on both the nearside and offside front suspension arms. While these did not result in a failure at the time, they represent a known point of wear for this Audi Q3. A physical inspection should check for play in the control arms or uneven tyre wear which would indicate these bushes have deteriorated since that report. The recurring presence of child seats during the 2024 and 2025 tests prevented full inspections of the adult seatbelts. A buyer must manually verify that these belts are functioning correctly and are free of fraying or damage. Beyond these points, the history is remarkably clean of structural corrosion or brake failures, suggesting the chassis has remained structurally sound throughout its nine years.
