2022 Audi Q3 Sport 35 Tfsi Mhev S-A 1.5L Petrol · DG22 BNN

This Audi Q3 presents an unblemished roadworthiness record, with both of its DVSA examinations to date returning clean passes and not a single advisory item recorded against it. The most recent test on 12 March 2026 followed the same pattern as the February 2025 examination, meaning the vehicle has passed through its first two MOT cycles without any tester noting wear, corrosion, fluid leaks, or component deterioration of any kind. For a four-year-old vehicle this is a genuinely strong position: even well-maintained cars typically accumulate minor advisories on tyres, wipers, or brake disc wear by this stage, so the absence of any commentary suggests the running gear remains in sound condition. The recorded mileage of 31,018 miles equates to roughly 7,754 miles per annum, which sits comfortably within the typical range for a UK vehicle of this age and indicates regular, moderate use rather than prolonged standing or heavy commercial-style accumulation. The interval between the two tests shows consistent usage with no gaps in the testing record and no unusual mileage jumps that might suggest clocking or extended lay-up. This pattern of steady use is mechanically favourable, as regular operation keeps seals lubricated, brakes free of surface corrosion, and the mild-hybrid 48-volt system cycling normally. With no defects flagged in the official record, buyer checks should focus on verifying that the condition observed on inspection matches the clean paperwork. On a test drive, listen for any knocking or clonking from the front suspension over broken surfaces, confirm the S tronic automatic gearbox shifts smoothly without hesitation or shudder at low speeds, and check that the mild-hybrid start-stop system engages and restarts seamlessly. Brake pedal feel should be firm and progressive with no judder through the steering wheel under moderate braking, which would indicate disc run-out. Given the vehicle's age, it is also worth confirming that the manufacturer's service schedule has been followed, particularly oil changes for the 1.5-litre TFSI engine, and checking whether any remaining factory warranty or extended cover transfers with the sale. Inspect the tyres for even wear across all four corners, as uneven shoulder wear on a car of this mileage could point to alignment issues not yet severe enough to attract an advisory. Overall, the MOT history supports a positive assessment, and the usual pre-purchase diligence should concentrate on service documentation and a physical inspection rather than any known mechanical weaknesses.
