2013 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · DS63 USN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive service pattern. While the most recent test in March 2026 at 138,252 miles passed, it flagged the rear braking system, specifically noting thin pads and pitted or scored discs. This follows a clean result in February 2025, suggesting that the owner tends to address mechanical issues once they approach failure or advisory thresholds rather than performing scheduled preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical annual usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,600 miles per year. Between February 2023 and March 2026, the car covered 24,987 miles, showing a steady usage pattern. The gap of roughly 8,000 miles between the February 2024 and 2025 tests confirms the vehicle is used regularly, though the high mileage of over 138,000 miles places significant stress on the age-related drivetrain and suspension components. A buyer should prioritize a thorough inspection of the rear braking assembly, as the pitting on the discs recorded in 2026 indicates either corrosion from prolonged standing or heavy use without adequate cleaning. The 2024 advisory regarding front tyres worn to the edge and the legal limit suggests potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes which should be verified to prevent premature tyre wear. Additionally, the front windscreen damage noted in the latest test must be monitored for spreading cracks that could eventually obstruct the driver's field of view due to temperature changes.
