2012 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · AF12 XFG

The 2012 Audi A6 presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 15 March 2026 at 158,739 miles, with no defects logged. The maintenance trend is stable. Two prior failures in April 2024 and April 2025 were recorded with no defects stated by the tester, and the vehicle passed on re-test the next day each time, indicating minor administrative or unlogged rectification rather than escalating mechanical decline. Recorded mileage rose from 139,390 on 5 April 2024 to 150,506 on 8 April 2025, then to 158,739 by 15 March 2026. That equates to roughly 11,000 to 11,500 miles per year, typical for a 14-year-old executive saloon. The DVSA data shows no large gaps or sudden accumulation spikes. The history is sparse, with every test either clean or a same-week pass after a defect-free failure, so no consumable wear or structural issues were formally captured. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and 158,739 miles. The repeated defect-free failures suggest the tester may have flagged something off-record, or the vehicle was presented late for retest; either way, verify the reason with the test station. Check underneath for corrosion on structural members and assess exhaust emissions under load. Tyres and wiper blades will be near end of life at this mileage even though no advisories appear. The owner kept the car tested annually, implying basic compliance, but the absent advisories do not confirm component condition.
