2015 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · FY65 AFJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status having passed its most recent inspection on 29 August 2024 with no defects recorded. While a failure occurred exactly one day prior at the same mileage of 193,162 miles, the lack of recorded defects suggests an administrative error or a minor issue was rectified immediately before the retest. The consistent absence of advisories across the last three tests indicates that the vehicle has been maintained in a condition that meets minimum regulatory standards despite its high-age status. The mileage profile reflects heavy usage for an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 17,500 miles per year. Between June 2022 at 155,104 miles and August 2023 at 171,107 miles, the car covered over 16,000 miles in just fourteen months. The rate accelerated recently, with 22,055 miles logged between the August 2023 and August 2024 tests. This rapid accumulation places significant mechanical stress on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to average-mileage vehicles of this era. A buyer must prioritise a thorough physical inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as high-mileage Audis frequently suffer from worn rubber components and control arms. Given the high mileage, the brake system should be checked for thinning discs and binding calipers that may not have triggered a failure point yet. While the MOT history is clean of structural corrosion alerts, the high mileage necessitates a check of the undercarriage for heat-related wear and oil leaks that a standard MOT test might not capture.
