2009 Audi TT 2.0L Diesel · DT03 MDT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, maintaining a clean record following a period of reactive maintenance. The most recent test in November 2025 at 87,362 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that previous mechanical and lighting issues were addressed. While the history shows intermittent failures related to wear and tear components, the overall trend suggests the car is currently being maintained to a standard that passes annual inspections without major failures. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 87,362 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 5,139 miles per year. This low usage is consistent across the timeline, though there is a notable gap in records between July 2019 and January 2021 where the vehicle covered only 5,598 miles over 18 months. Such low mileage often explains the specific issues noted, such as the 2024 failure regarding perished tyres, as rubber-based components degrade due to age and exposure rather than distance-driven wear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and rubber-related de-items. The November 2024 test flagged all four tyres as perished and the nearside front tyre as being worn on the inside edge, which suggests a potential alignment issue or incorrect camber settings. Furthermore, the 2023 failure due to severely deteriorated anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust covers occurred on both sides. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check for cracking in suspension bushes, bushings, and arm joints is essential to ensure these components are not nearing another similar failure in the coming months.
