2015 Audi Q5 2.0L Diesel · J90 EED

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the most recent inspection indicates a transition from a perfect record to minor mechanical wear. After four consecutive years of clean passes between 2021 and 2024, the September 2025 test at 118,499 miles flagged two advisories: rear brake discs showing pitting and scoring, and a damaged front windscreen. This shift suggests the vehicle has been maintained but is now beginning to require standard preventative maintenance following a long period of clean operation. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent with typical UK usage for this age, averaging approximately 10,773 miles per annum. The data shows a steady climb from 72,483 miles in August 2021 to 118,499 miles in September 2025. There are no significant gaps in testing intervals or spikes in mileage that suggest long periods of neglect. This regularity indicates the car has been used consistently, which is generally beneficial for the health of various rubber components and engine seals compared to a vehicle that sits for months. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system to determine if the pitting on the rear discs is indicative of surface corrosion or deeper structural degradation. Given the mileage has surpassed 110,000 miles, the suspension should also be checked for wear on bushes and coil springs, as these components often reach their service limit at this stage. The flagged windscreen damage should be monitored for cracks that may expand under thermal stress, though it currently does not pose an immediate safety risk.
