2021 Audi Q4 E-Tron S Line 40 Electric · EM67 BEE

A clean and consistent roadworthiness profile defines this 2021 Audi Q4 e-tron S Line 40, with both recorded DVSA examinations resulting in pass certificates and zero advisories, failures, or defects logged. The most recent test on 8 May 2025 produced a clean pass, and the prior examination on 23 May 2024 was equally unblemished, confirming a stable mechanical presentation over the observed testing period. With no flagged component wear, structural corrosion, brake concerns, suspension defects, or lighting issues present in the official record, there is no pattern of recurring advisories to suggest any developing mechanical weakness. This is a reassuring baseline for a prospective buyer evaluating condition against MOT evidence. The recorded mileage of 31,349 miles across approximately five years of service translates to an average annual accumulation of around 6,270 miles, which sits squarely within expected parameters for a privately used premium electric SUV of this age. There are no anomalous gaps in the testing history suggesting prolonged off-road periods, nor any sudden upward shifts in mileage between recorded tests that would indicate heavy commercial use, high-mileage motorway commuting, or rapid accumulation that might accelerate consumable wear. This measured usage pattern is mechanically favourable, as it implies moderate load on the single-speed transmission, brake assemblies, suspension components, and rolling stock, while still reflecting regular operation that keeps mechanical seals, lubricants, and the high-voltage battery in working condition rather than suffering the drawbacks of extended standing. For a vehicle of this type, where the MOT record carries no advisories, the inspection focus should shift toward the areas most commonly subject to wear on a Q4 e-tron of this age and mileage band, even though none were flagged in testing. On a physical inspection and test drive, particular attention should be given to the condition of the coil springs and suspension arms, as these can suffer surface corrosion or bush deterioration that may not have reached MOT failure threshold but could manifest as knocking or clonking over uneven road surfaces or speed humps. Steering response should be evaluated for any vagueness, droning, or pulling, which could indicate wear in the front MacPherson strut assemblies or tie rod ends, while the rear multi-link setup warrants a listen for any compliant thuds over sharper undulations. The braking system, despite no recorded defects, deserves a deliberate dynamic assessment given the regenerative braking strategy typical of this model, which can lead to rear brake corrosion through underuse. A test drive should include a series of moderate to firm stops from higher speeds to confirm smooth pedal feel without judder, binding, or pulling to either side, and a low-speed manoeuvre with light pedal application should reveal any seized rear caliper slides. The tyres, while not flagged, should be inspected for even shoulder wear across both axles, as any camber or geometry irregularity often points to subtle suspension wear. Finally, a thorough underbody and wheel arch visual inspection is advisable to identify the surface corrosion that commonly initiates on EV undertrays, subframe mounting points, and brake pipe runs, none of which may yet be severe enough to record at test but could inform longer-term maintenance planning.
