2016 Audi Q5 3.0L Diesel · CP16 XPB

This 2016 Audi Q5 demonstrates an exceptionally clean and stable roadworthiness trend, culminating in a straight pass on 2026-02-16 at an unspecified mileage. The preceding history matches this positive trajectory, showing clean passes on 2025-04-29, 2024-05-01, and 2022-06-17. The complete absence of advisories or recorded defects across four consecutive annual examinations indicates exemplary mechanical upkeep and suggests previous owners addressed wear and tear proactively rather than deferring maintenance. The vehicle accumulates mileage at a steady rate, reaching 92,946 miles across its ten-year operational life, which averages out to roughly 9,300 miles annually. A notable temporal gap exists between the June 2022 test and the May 2024 test, spanning nearly two years without a logged statutory examination. This lapse implies the vehicle may have been temporarily laid up, stored, or registered off the road during that period, though subsequent test data confirms no lingering mechanical detriment arose from the inactivity. Prospective buyers inspecting the car in person should focus on high-load components that typically require attention at this age and mileage threshold, specifically the multi-link suspension arms, subframe bushes, and heavy-duty braking assemblies. Although the test certificates show no historic advisories for corrosion or fluid leaks, a comprehensive ramp inspection remains essential to verify the structural integrity of the underbody and check the Quattro drivetrain components, dual-clutch transmission housing, and turbocharged engine bay for any latent seepage. Consumables such as tyres and brake discs warrant close measurement during a physical viewing to ensure immediate replacement costs will not be required post-purchase.
