Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues), Brakes (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 4 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Emissions unable to be completed (8.2.2.2 (e))”; “Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”; “Offside Front Anti-roll bar ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.

Our Verdict
Exercise caution due to high mileage and
Prioritise reviewing the invoices for the repairs carried out in May 2026. Specifically, verify that the 'emissions unable to be completed' and 'major leak of exhaust gases' were fully resolved with quality parts rather than temporary fixes. Given the 1968cc diesel engine has covered over 167,000 miles, you should request documented evidence of timing belt and water pump replacements, as these are critical for this engine's longevity.
The 2.0L diesel engine is designed for efficiency, particularly on longer journeys, but maintenance costs are likely to be higher than average for a 2011 vehicle due to its high mileage. Expect increased expenditure on wear-and-tear items such as brakes and suspension components, which have already appeared in the MOT history.
Carefully inspect the exhaust system and undertrays, as these were primary reasons for the May 2026 MOT failure. Pay close attention to the front suspension; the MOT history records 'cracking' upper suspension arm bushes in 2024 and a worn anti-roll bar ball joint in 2026, which aligns with common failure patterns for the A4 model. Check the front shock absorbers for any further oil misting beyond what was noted in 2025.
This 2011 black Audi A4 diesel has recorded 167,151 miles, which is significantly above the model's average annual mileage. The MOT history shows a pattern of suspension-related advisories and a significant failure in May 2026 involving exhaust leaks and emissions. Although it has passed its last four annual tests, the recent failures indicate a need for closer inspection of the drivetrain and chassis.
The Audi A4 has an average MOT pass rate of 80.7%, with suspension arms being one of the most frequent causes of failure across the model range.
