2022 Audi A4 S Line BLK ED 35 Tfsi Mhev 2.0L Petrol · CP71 MRY

With an unblemished pass sheet across three consecutive MOT tests, including a clean result on 2026-07-08 at 59,791 miles, this Audi A4 S Line Black Edition presents a roadworthiness record free of advisories, failures, or recorded defects. Three tests completed in successive years, each returning no advisories, demonstrate that the braking system, suspension components, tyres, exhaust, lighting, and structural elements inspected under the DVSA scheme have all remained within legal limits throughout the testing cycle. That said, a clean MOT history reflects only statutory pass/fail thresholds at the point of test and does not confirm the condition of non-tested items or components that may be approaching service intervals. At four years old with 59,791 miles on the odometer, this vehicle has accumulated approximately 14,948 miles annually, a figure well above the typical UK average and indicative of a high-use profile. Higher mileage generally accelerates wear on consumables such as brake pads, discs, tyres, drive belts, and oil, and places greater demand on the 35 TFSI mild-hybrid powertrain, clutch or DSG actuation components, and suspension bushes. Although the mileage progression between tests cannot be precisely verified from the data supplied, the cumulative figure itself suggests that any prospective buyer should approach the car expecting items to be closer to replacement than they would be on a lower-mileage equivalent. Given that no specific advisories have been recorded, component-level scrutiny on a physical inspection must focus on areas that the MOT does not necessarily flag until they cross failure thresholds. During a test drive, listen for clonks, knocks, or thuds from the front suspension over speed humps and uneven road surfaces, which could indicate worn control arm bushes, anti-roll bar links, or top mount deterioration common on higher-mileage Audi B9 platform vehicles. Under braking, check for any judder through the pedal suggesting warped front discs, pulling to one side indicating a binding caliper, or a soft pedal travel pointing to hydraulic issues, while also inspecting the inner and outer faces of the wheels for binding caliper heat marks. The turbocharged 1.4 TFSI engine and its 12V mild-hybrid belt-driven starter generator system warrant particular attention, with any hesitation, misfire, or rough idle on cold start worth investigating, alongside coolant hoses and the expansion tank for signs of cracking. Steering feel should remain consistent, with no slack at the straight-ahead position or any knocking through the column when turning lock to lock, which would point to worn tie rods or drop links. Under the bonnet, look for oil misting around the cam chain cover and rocker gasket, condition of the auxiliary drive belt, and the state of the coolant and brake fluid, neither of which is assessed under MOT. A pre-purchase inspection by a specialist familiar with the MHEV system remains strongly advisable given the elevated annual mileage.
