2017 Audi Q2 1.0L Petrol · FA17 UDL

The vehicle presents a generally stable roadworthiness profile, though recent records indicate a shift toward neglected consumable maintenance. The most recent test on 28 April 2026 at 72,582 miles resulted in a pass, but the tester flagged an offside rear tyre worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge. This follows a clean result in April 2025 at 61,179 miles, suggesting that while the vehicle's primary mechanical systems remain functional, the current owner is allowing tyre wear to approach the legal threshold. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 72,582 miles, averaging roughly 8,000 miles per year. The data shows a steady increase in distance between tests, moving from 19,204 miles in August 2020 to 72,582 miles in April 2026. There are no significant gaps in the testing history that would suggest long periods of inactivity or sudden, excessive mileage spikes. A buyer should focus on the vehicle's suspension and tyre wear patterns during a physical inspection. The 6 May 2024 test at 48,807 miles highlighted an offside front tyre that was both worn on the edge and showing signs of perishing, alongside pitted rear brake discs. The recurrence of edge wear on tyres in both 2024 and 2026 suggests a potential issue with wheel alignment or suspension geometry. Checking for uneven tyre wear and inspecting the condition of suspension bushes and shock absorbers would be prudent to ensure these issues are not indicative of deeper mechanical faults. The brake discs were noted as pitted or scored in 2024, so a manual check of the braking system for any signs of binding or excessive vibration is recommended. While the vehicle has passed all recent tests, the trend of catching consumable items like tyres and discs just before they fail suggests a reactive rather than proactive maintenance approach. Ensuring the recent tyre replacement has been carried out and checking the remaining tread depth across all four corners is essential.
