2022 Audi Q4 E-Tron S Line 35 Electricity · KM22 DPN

The defining mechanical thread across this Q4 e-tron's MOT history is a one-off advisory concerning uneven tyre wear across all four corners, recorded at the most recent pass on 29 October 2025, with the prior test on 2 November 2024 returning a clean sheet. Two consecutive passes and only a single advisory of that nature suggest a vehicle that has not yet developed chronic MOT-relevant defects, but the universal nature of the wear pattern is the headline item rather than the clean overall pass rate. Both tests were completed without any advisory related to braking components, suspension linkages, steering, or corrosion, indicating the structural and dynamic systems remain within test thresholds at the recorded inspection points. Mileage accumulation is broadly in line with expectations for a four-year-old vehicle, with the 30,914 recorded miles translating to approximately 7,728 miles per year. There is no evidence in the MOT record of the vehicle being laid up for extended periods or subjected to exceptionally high annual mileages that would accelerate wear on EV-specific hardware such as the battery thermal management system, reduction gearbox, or regenerative braking components. With this level of use, brake discs and pads fitted to a Q4 of this age are unlikely to have sustained significant friction wear given the regen-dominant nature of deceleration, while suspension components and tyres will still have been subjected to normal urban and light motorway duty cycles. The mileage profile itself does not flag any mechanical concerns beyond what the wear-related advisory implies about loading, geometry, or tyre specification. For a prospective buyer, the all-four-edge tyre wear advisory should drive a targeted inspection of the wheel alignment geometry before any purchase is committed to. On a test drive, listen for any drone or uneven road noise that could indicate feathered tread, and feel for steering wander, pull to one side under braking, or a vagueness around the straight-ahead position that would point to a tracking issue left uncorrected since the advisory was issued. Inspect each tyre shoulder closely for a stepped or chiselled wear pattern rather than a uniform reduction in tread depth, and confirm whether all four corners are matching in brand, size, and specification, as a mismatched set on an EV with torque-sensitive geometry is a common cause of this presentation. Beyond the flagged wear pattern, the absence of any braking or suspension advisories at either test means a standard physical inspection of those areas should be sufficient rather than an in-depth component-level investigation. On the road, check for any knocking from the front suspension over uneven surfaces, which would indicate worn top mounts or anti-roll bar bushings, and listen for any binding or rubbing from the brake calipers when releasing from a standstill, as regen-dominant vehicles are prone to corroded slider mechanisms if lightly used. The Q4 e-tron is a battery-electric vehicle, so verify that the high-voltage system displays no warning messages, that the charging port latches cleanly, and that the predicted range remains consistent with ambient conditions and the recorded 30,914 miles, as the tyre wear pattern combined with any deviation in drivetrain smoothness would warrant a diagnostic scan before purchase.
