2014 Audi Q5 2.0L Diesel · KT14 KVG

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, having passed five consecutive MOT tests without a single failure. The most recent inspection in August 2025 at 94,258 miles shows no immediate mechanical failures, suggesting the vehicle remains in a functional state. While the history is clean of rejects, the record reveals recurring issues regarding tyre geometry that have not been fully addressed in subsequent tests. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,855 miles per year. Between July 2022 at 73,887 miles and August 2025 at 94,258 miles, the car covered a steady distance, indicating predictable usage intervals. This regular operation is generally preferable to long periods of standing, which can often lead to accelerated degradation of rubber components and brake seal seizing. A buyer must address the recurring tyre wear issues noted in the records. The August 2023 test at 81,726 miles flagged both front tyres for edge wear, and the August 2024 test at 87,233 miles noted both rear tyres wearing on the inner edge. This trend indicates a persistent alignment fault or worn suspension bushes. A professional four-wheel alignment and a thorough inspection of the control arms and ball joints are required to prevent premature tyre replacement and ensure stable handling. The repeated mention of plastic engine and underfloor covers being fitted between 2021 and 2025 suggests the owners were proactive with minor trim and aerodynamic repairs. Since no structural corrosion or brake failures were recorded, the focus of a physical inspection should remain on the suspension geometry that caused the uneven tyre wear. Checking for oil leaks around the engine covers is also advisable given the vehicle is approaching the 100,000-mile threshold.
