2015 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · DT02 AAA

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a worsening trend regarding front suspension component wear. The most recent test in November 2025 at 106,731 miles identified worn bushes on both the offside and nearside front lower suspension arms. This is a recurring issue that dates back to April 2022 and 2023, indicating that the rubber components are reaching the end of their functional life despite not yet failing inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. There is a significant period of high usage between December 2023 (57,996 miles) and December 2024 (88,162 miles), where the car covered over 30,000 miles in just twelve months. This burst of activity correlates with the 2024 MOT advisory where all four tyres were flagged as being close to the legal limit or worn on edges, suggesting neglected preventative maintenance during that high-intensity period. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the front suspension geometry. The lower control arms and bushes have been flagged in three consecutive tests, and the repeated mention suggests these parts were either not replaced effectively or the vehicle is suffering from alignment issues. Given the uneven tyre wear noted in late 2024, a professional alignment check is essential to ensure that the worn bushes have not caused premature scrubbing of new tyres.
