2017 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · BG67 WMX

The vehicle remains technically roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from basic consumable wear to emerging structural concerns. The most recent test in August 2021 at 79,787 miles passed, but it introduced advisories regarding corrosion that were not present in previous records. While the car passed its inspection, the presence of rust on coil spring mountings indicates that the chassis is beginning to show signs of age-related degradation. The mileage pattern is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,865 miles per year over its nine-year life. A significant gap of 23,547 miles exists between the 2020 test at 56,240 miles and the August 2021 test at 79,787 miles, which suggests a period of heavy use. However, the lack of MOT data for the subsequent five years leaves the current state of the drivetrain and suspension unknown, as no tests have occurred since the last recorded inspection. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear suspension to monitor the corrosion noted on the nearside and offside lower coil spring mountings. The 2021 tester flagged these as not seriously weakened, but rust on Audi mounting points often progresses to structural failure if left untreated. Additionally, the 2020 advisory for uneven tyre wear on the front axle suggests a potential history of poor alignment, which should be verified by checking the current tyre tread patterns. Given the long time elapsed since the last MOT, a fresh inspection is mandatory to identify any fluid leaks or perished rubber components that have developed during the period of lapsed testing.
