2017 Audi A5 3.0L Diesel · DE17 MPY

The January 29 2026 MOT at 50,772 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance history has been consistently satisfactory. All earlier tests from February 2022 through February 2025, spanning 48,275 to 50,471 miles, also showed no recorded defects, indicating a stable trend with no evidence of worsening or improving condition. The recorded mileage of 5,641 miles per year is well below the typical usage for a 2017 model, suggesting light use or extended periods of standing. Mileage increments between tests are modest – about 559 miles from February 2022 to February 2023, 594 miles from February 2023 to February 2024, and similar amounts thereafter – with no abrupt jumps that would signal intensive use or long idle periods. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, examine the brake discs and calipers for scoring or binding, and check the structural integrity of the chassis and wheel arches for corrosion. Although the MOT history shows no defects, a physical assessment of the exhaust system, tyre tread depth, and any signs of fluid leaks is advisable to confirm that low mileage has not concealed emerging mechanical issues.
