2022 Audi A5 S Line 35 TDI Mhev S-A 2.0L Diesel · DA71 VJZ

The Audi A5 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 14 January 2026 at 49,790 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior pass on 15 January 2025 at 39,815 miles was also clean. The only blemish is a fail on 10 January 2025 at 39,631 miles where the tester logged no defects, indicating an administrative or unrecorded-cause rejection rather than a mechanical fault. No advisories or recurring wear items appear across the three entries. Mileage sat at 39,631 in early January 2025 and rose to 49,790 by mid-January 2026, an annual rate near 10,000 miles that is moderate for a 2022 diesel. The car covered roughly 10,000 miles in twelve months, with no sudden accumulation spikes. The five-day gap between the 10 January 2025 fail and the 15 January 2025 pass shows a quick retest, but the sparse three-entry history limits insight into longer-term wear patterns. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear given the vehicle's age and mileage. The clean record offers no flagged corrosion or exhaust emission concerns, yet the 2025 fail with zero recorded defects warrants confirmation that no latent brake binding or structural issue was overlooked at the time. Given the absence of advisories, focus the viewing on tyre tread depth, wiper condition, and underbody structural integrity. The high-for-age mileage implies consumables may need earlier replacement than a low-use equivalent, despite the spotless MOT trail.
