Our Verdict
This Audi Q5 represents a solid purchase option given its recent clean MOT history. While it has covered more mileage than the model average, the lack of recent defects is a positive indicator.
When inspecting this specific 2.0L diesel Q5, focus on the service history to ensure the timing belt and water pump have been replaced in line with Audi's manufacturer recommendations. Given the mileage is approaching the 90,000-mile mark, check for any signs of wear in the suspension components and braking system.
Negotiate based on the mileage, as this vehicle has been driven significantly more than the average for its age. Ensure you verify the continuity of the service record, as the MOT history alone does not confirm regular mechanical maintenance.
As a 2.0L diesel, this Q5 is designed for efficient long-distance driving, though running costs will be influenced by its weight and the Quattro system if fitted. You should check the specific tax band and insurance group for this 2017 registration, as these vary based on specific trim levels.
Typical maintenance costs for an Audi of this age include periodic oil changes and potential replacements of consumables like brake pads and tyres. Expect annual running costs to be moderate to high depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
Pay close attention to the suspension, specifically the coil springs, as this is identified as a top MOT failure reason for this model across the wider dataset. Even though no failures were recorded for this specific vehicle, it remains a known weak point.
Given the 84,790 miles recorded, inspect the condition of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) and check for any signs of fluid leaks around the engine bay. Although the 2024 MOT showed a failure at 71,206 miles, the record does not specify the reason, so a thorough visual inspection of the underside is advised.
This 2017 black Audi Q5, powered by a 2.0L diesel engine, has a recorded history of five MOT tests. The vehicle has covered 84,790 miles over its nine-year lifespan, which is higher than the aggregate average of 8,625 miles per year. Notably, the most recent two MOT tests in 2024 and 2025 were passed with no defects recorded.
The Audi Q5 shows an average MOT pass rate of 87.2% across the 103,401 vehicles analysed, with coil springs being a frequent cause of failure.
