2015 Audi A8 3.0L Diesel · Y777 ACH

This 2015 Audi A8 passed its most recent MOT in January 2026 with a long list of advisory items, which is a clear warning sign. The vehicle is now showing a pattern of corrosion and wear that has been building for at least two years, and the condition trend is worsening. The most serious recurring issue is the rear sub-frame corrosion, first noted as a passable advisory in January 2025 and repeated in January 2026. This is a structural component, and while it was not considered seriously weakened at the last test, corrosion can progress quickly. If left unchecked, it could become a major, expensive repair or even a future MOT failure. The brake system is also deteriorating. The front and rear brake discs are now scored and worn, and the offside front brake pipe is corroded. These are safety-critical items that will likely need replacement soon. The front tyres are worn to the legal limit, and the rear tyres show damage and perishing, meaning all four tyres may need replacing. The mileage of 78,490 miles over 11 years works out to about 7,135 miles per year, which is typical.
