2024 Audi Q5 S Line 40 TDI Mhev Quat S-A Diesel · GD73 TBY

The DVSA database shows no MOT record for this 2024 Audi Q5 S line, meaning a formal roadworthiness test has not been recorded since the vehicle first became eligible for MOT in 2026. Without any pass or fail entries, it is not possible to comment on a maintenance trend; the absence of data simply indicates that the vehicle has not yet been subjected to the statutory inspection, and any assessment of its condition must rely on physical examination and service documentation supplied by the seller. Mileage for the vehicle has not been disclosed, so an objective comparison with the two‑year age cannot be made. A typical 2024 Q5 driven in the UK averages between 8 000 and 12 000 miles per annum; if the odometer were significantly lower, the car may have spent considerable time stationary, which can lead to battery sulphation, tyre sidewall cracking and brake disc corrosion. Conversely, if the mileage were well above 20 000 miles for the period, the high‑kilometre usage would accelerate wear on the timing belt (or chain, depending on engine spec), suspension bushings, and the MHEV hybrid components, and would demand a thorough check of service intervals for oil, coolant and brake fluid replacement. For a prospective buyer the first step is to verify the full service history and confirm that the manufacturer’s 30 000‑mile or two‑year service was performed, particularly the oil change, fuel filter, and the MHEV battery cooling system inspection. Inspect the tyre tread depth and sidewalls for dry rot, cracking or uneven wear that could indicate mis‑alignment or worn suspension components; a visual check for any bulges or delamination on the sidewalls is essential on a vehicle of this age even if mileage is low. Examine the 12 V battery terminals for corrosion and, if possible, have the battery load‑tested; a battery that has been idle for long periods may lose capacity and affect the start‑stop system. Check the brake discs and pads for surface rust, scoring or uneven pad wear, and confirm that the calipers move freely without binding – any excessive pedal travel or shudder at the point of initial braking would be a red flag. Finally, look for signs of fluid degradation: inspect the engine oil level and colour, ensuring it is not milky or overly dark, and verify that the coolant reservoir is filled to the correct mark and free of oil contamination. Examine the exhaust system for any cracks, rust patches or loose hangers, and listen for any abnormal exhaust notes during a short test drive. Verify that all electronic systems, including the MHEV hybrid controls, infotainment, and driver‑assist features, power up without fault codes. A comprehensive pre‑purchase inspection by a qualified MOT centre should be arranged before finalising the purchase to uncover any latent defects that are not evident from the missing MOT record.
