2016 Audi A4 2.0L Petrol · AV16 YNF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a period of reactive rather than proactive care. While it passed its most recent test in September 2025 at 57,266 miles, the failure just two days prior revealed multiple mechanical weaknesses. The tester flagged a worn offside front upper suspension bush and a nearside rear tyre reaching the legal limit. The fact that these issues were rectified immediately to secure a pass suggests the owner only addressed faults once they became a cause for MOT failure. The mileage profile is notably low for a decade-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,700 miles per year. This is well below the national average for an Audi. The data shows a significant gap in usage between January 2023 (33,263 miles) and December 2024 (50,446 miles), where nearly 17,000 miles were covered in two years. While low mileage reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, long periods of standing can sometimes lead to accelerated degradation of rubber components and fluid breakdown, despite the low distance travelled. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the front suspension geometry, as the offside front suspension arm bush was flagged as worn in both 2024 and 2025. This recurring fault suggests the component may not have been replaced with a quality part or is suffering from premature wear. You should also verify the condition of all tyres for uneven wear patterns, as the 2025 failure for edge wear indicates potential alignment issues. Given the low mileage, check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, which frequently occurs on vehicles that sit for extended periods.
