2014 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · GU64 FZP

The vehicle remains roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward reactive rather than preventative care. The most recent test in September 2025 at 72,965 miles identified multiple advisories regarding front suspension arm bushes and tyre condition. While the car passed, the presence of worn suspension components and perished rubber indicates that components are only being addressed once they approach failure limits or trigger advisories. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use executive-class vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. There is a notable jump in usage between the August 2024 test at 59,200 miles and the September 2025 test at 72,965 miles, representing over 13,000 miles driven in just thirteen months. This sudden burst of activity likely correlates with the accelerated wear on the front suspension and tyres noted in the latest record, as the vehicle appears to have been used significantly more frequently than in previous years. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension geometry, as both nearside and offside arm bushes were flagged for wear in 2025. The brake history also shows a recurring issue with thin rear inner pads that appeared in 2022 and again in 2023, suggesting either a sticking caliper piston or a simple lack of routine brake inspections. Additionally, the rear tyres must be checked for sidewall cracking and perishing, as the record confirms they were already deteriorating due to age while the nearside front tyre was at the legal limit during the latest test.
