2015 Audi Q5 2.0L Diesel · DV11 MCP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test on 26 February 2026 at 98,527 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently met passing standards over the last three years. While the record shows immediate failures in both 2025 and 2026, the lack of recorded defects on the passing certificates suggests that any minor issues were rectified prior to the re-test rather than indicating systemic mechanical failure. The mileage profile is consistent with typical usage for an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. Between the February 2024 test at 80,788 miles and the February 2025 test at 89,262 miles, the vehicle covered 8,474 miles. The subsequent interval saw 9,265 miles covered leading to the February 2026 test. This steady accumulation suggests regular use, which is generally beneficial for seals and mechanical components as it prevents the degradation associated with long periods of inactivity. Despite the clean advisory history in the recent tests, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear areas common to the Audi Q5 at this mileage. At nearly 100,000 miles, suspension control arm bushings and rubber components often show signs of cracking or tearing. The buyer should also check for brake disc thinning and caliper caliper movement, as the record does not rule out binding issues. Since the MOT does not flag structural corrosion, a visual check of the underbody is still advisable to ensure no hidden rust has developed since the last inspection.
