2011 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · FV61 YTY

The current MOT status remains valid until November 2026, with the most recent test conducted on 29 November 2025 at 169,502 miles. The vehicle exhibits a stable maintenance trend, though it shows clear evidence of age-related component fatigue. While the car successfully passed its latest inspection, the recurring advisories regarding suspension bushes and rear brake discs indicate that these items are reaching the end of their service life and will require replacement in the near future. The recorded mileage of 169,502 over fifteen years averages approximately 11,300 miles annually, which aligns with standard usage patterns for this class of vehicle. The history shows a notable spike in usage between late 2023 and late 2024, where the odometer increased by over 20,000 miles in a twelve-month period. This accelerated usage likely contributed to the failure in November 2024, where a split constant velocity boot necessitated a repair, confirming that the vehicle is being driven regularly rather than sitting idle. Prospective buyers should prioritise a physical inspection of the front suspension arms and the rear braking system. The persistent advisories for worn bushes suggest that the steering feel may be compromised or imprecise, and the rear discs have been flagged for wear or scoring across multiple tests. Check for any knocking noises from the front end during a test drive, as these bushes often degrade further between inspections. Additionally, verify that the rear brake discs are not excessively lipped or corroded, as these components are clearly nearing their mechanical limit.
