2012 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · AJ12 AEF

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT status following a clean pass on 13 February 2024 at 108,792 miles. The maintenance trend appears exceptionally stable, as the record shows five consecutive years of passes without a single recorded advisory or failure for mechanical defect. While the 8 February 2024 test resulted in a failure, the lack of recorded defects suggests this was likely an administrative error or a minor issue rectified immediately before the successful retest five days later. The recorded mileage of 108,792 over fourteen years averages approximately 7,771 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this class. The data shows consistent, incremental usage throughout the five-year history, with no evidence of long-term storage or excessive high-mileage accumulation. This steady progression suggests the vehicle has been subjected to regular use rather than erratic driving cycles, which is generally favourable for the longevity of engine seals and battery health. Because the MOT history is devoid of technical advisories, the primary concern for a prospective buyer is the potential for hidden wear that falls outside the scope of a standard statutory test. You should prioritise a physical inspection of the suspension bushes, track rod ends, and shock absorbers, as these components frequently reach the end of their service life on an A6 of this age and mileage. Check the brake discs and pads for signs of scoring or thinning, and verify the condition of the undercarriage for any early-stage surface corrosion that may not have reached the threshold for an MOT failure. Given the lack of historical flags, a comprehensive service history check remains essential to confirm that consumable items like the timing belt and transmission fluid have been replaced according to the manufacturer schedule.
