2016 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · DG16 XGJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improving maintenance over the last three years. The most recent test in October 2025 at 138,858 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This represents a significant improvement compared to the mechanical issues noted in the vehicle's earlier history, suggesting that the current owner has addressed previous wear and tear that was flagged by the tester. The mileage reflects consistent high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 14,000 miles per year over its ten-year life. Between October 2021 and October 2023, the vehicle covered over 37,000 miles, indicating regular and likely long-distance motorway use. While high mileage typically places greater strain on drivetrain components and suspension bushings, the string of clean MOT reports in 2023, 2024, and 2025 suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to handle these demands without failing or suffering from recurring mechanical failures. A physical inspection should focus on the front suspension geometry and braking system, as these have been identified as points of concern in the past. The 2021 test flagged a worn lower rear arm bush and thin front brake pads, while the 2022 record noted uneven tyre wear on the front axle. A buyer should check for any signs of remaining rubber cracking in the arm bushings and ensure the alignment is correct to prevent further premature tyre degradation. Given the high mileage, verifying the condition of the brake discs and the integrity of the shock absorbers is essential to ensure the vehicle does not experience binding calipers or pull to one side under braking.
