2016 Audi A3 2.0L Diesel · GF66 RBV

The vehicle remains currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from clean records to emerging consumable wear issues. The most recent test in September 2025 at 49,630 miles identified a rear brake disc that was pitted and scored. While this did not result in a failure, it marks a departure from the defect-free history seen in the 2021 and 2022 inspections. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. Between August 2022 and September 2025, the car covered only 7,464 miles, suggesting consistent low-intensity use. However, the low mileage often correlates with age-related degradation of rubber components, which is evidenced by the advisories in 2023 and 2024 regarding tyre perishing and uneven wear. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the tyres and suspension, as the repeated reports of cracking and perishing indicate the rubber is reaching its age despite the low mileage. The pitted rear brake discs noted in 2025 will likely require replacement to ensure optimal braking performance and prevent future corrosion. You should also check the suspension bushings and fluid seals, as low-use vehicles can suffer from dry rot or seized components after long periods of standing.
