2018 Audi Q2 1.4L Petrol · DN18 EOA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a clear shift toward reactive rather than preventative care. While the test in March 2026 at 55,975 miles passed, the tester flagged multiple critical tyre issues including perishing, cracking, and uneven wear. This represents a decline from the clean records of 2022 and 2023, suggesting the current owner is only addressing consumable faults once they approach failure thresholds. The mileage pattern remains consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 26,203 miles in March 2022 to 55,975 miles in March 2026. However, the jump of over 7,500 miles between the 2025 and 2026 tests indicates a recent increase in usage compared to the earlier years, which likely correlates with the accelerated wear of the rubber-related components and braking system seen in the later entries. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system and suspension hardware. The March 2025 test identified thin front pads and pitted discs, indicating that the front braking assembly is nearing the end of its service life. Furthermore, recurring reports of perished and cracked tyres across the last three tests suggest the vehicle may have sat for long periods or suffers from an alignment issue. Check for uneven wear on the current set of tyres and verify that the previous brake faults have been fully rectified with high-quality components rather than temporary fixes.
