2002 Audi A4 2.0L Petrol · FL02 FMG

The maintenance trend for this Audi A4 remains stable, culminating in a clean pass at its most recent MOT. On 3 March 2023 at 150,892 miles, the tester recorded zero defects. A preceding test on 27 February 2023 at 150,870 miles resulted in a failure, yet no defects were officially logged. This anomaly typically points to a procedural or administrative issue, such as a missing fuel cap or an inability to open a required panel, rather than a mechanical deficiency. The vehicle passed its prior test on 28 February 2022 at 148,403 miles with no defects, indicating a consistent pattern of mechanical compliance. The mileage pattern aligns with light, typical use for a vehicle of this age. Accumulating 150,892 miles over roughly 24 years equates to an average of approximately 6,287 miles annually. Between the February 2022 and February 2023 tests, the odometer advanced by 2,467 miles, confirming regular but modest use. The mere 22 miles recorded between the late February and early March 2023 tests suggests the vehicle was likely stationary or undergoing repairs during that week. Notably, a significant gap exists in the record after March 2023, with no further tests logged up to the current date in July 2026, leaving over three years of recent use undocumented. Despite the clean MOT history, the absence of recent testing necessitates a thorough physical inspection. Buyers should closely examine the structural integrity of the chassis and subframes, as corrosion often develops unnoticed on vehicles of this vintage. Suspension components, including bushes and coil springs, require scrutiny for deterioration typical of older Audis. Brake calipers and discs should be checked for binding or excessive wear, while the exhaust system must be assessed for leaks or corrosion. The three-year gap since the last test means consumables like tyres and wiper blades may have perished from age rather than use, warranting a close check of their condition and date codes.
