2014 Audi Q3 S Line TDI Quattro 2.0L Diesel · AC09 TMC

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate, having passed its most recent test on 2025-10-21 at 143,004 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable regarding mechanical condition, as the record shows no recorded defects across all tests. Yet, the history contains two anomalous failures on 2025-10-01 and 2024-09-09 at 142,146 and 140,404 miles respectively, both of which list no defects. This suggests the failures likely resulted from procedural issues, such as insufficient oil for a diesel emissions test or a VIN discrepancy, rather than a mechanical deterioration. The mileage accumulation aligns reasonably with the vehicle's age until recently. Between the 2023-07-29 test at 126,128 miles and the 2024-09-09 test at 140,404 miles, the Audi covered 14,276 miles, reflecting typical annual usage. From 2024-09-19 at 140,860 miles to the 2025-10-21 test at 143,004 miles, the vehicle managed only 2,144 miles over a twelve-month period. Since October 2025, the recorded mileage has remained entirely static at 143,004 miles, indicating the car has been standing idle for approximately nine months. Despite the clean defect history, the prolonged stationary period warrants a thorough physical inspection. A vehicle standing for nine months risks surface corrosion on brake discs and binding calipers. Tyres may have developed flat spots or sidewall perishing from remaining under load in one position. Suspension bushes and seals can dry out when inactive. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the braking system for excessive pitting and check the rubber components for cracking. The diesel engine should be observed for excessive smoke upon cold starting, which could indicate injector or EGR issues masked by the recent lack of use.
