Our Verdict
Recommended purchase. This Audi A6 prese
Verify the service history to see if the front lower suspension arm pins and bushes were replaced following the advisories in July 2024. Given the repeated advisories for offside rear tyre wear in 2022 and 2023, it is advisable to check the current tyre tread and ensure the wheel alignment is correct.
As with many 2.0L diesel engines from this period, check for evidence of regular oil changes and ensure the vehicle has been used for longer motorway journeys to maintain the health of the diesel particulate filter (DPF).
The 1968cc diesel engine is designed for efficiency over long distances, though tax and insurance will depend on the specific trim and emissions bracket for 2016. Maintenance costs for the A6 are generally higher than for smaller vehicles, particularly regarding the complex multi-link suspension and brake system.
Annual costs will include diesel fuel, road tax, and insurance, alongside a budget for scheduled servicing and the replacement of wear-and-tear items like tyres and brake pads.
Focus your inspection on the front suspension; the 2024 MOT specifically flagged worn pins and bushes in the lower suspension arms on both the nearside and offside, which aligns with aggregate data showing suspension arms as a top failure reason for this model.
Check the offside rear tyre for any signs of uneven wear or 'edging', as this was an advisory in two consecutive years. Finally, inspect the underside of the vehicle for the corrosion of the sound deadening material mentioned in the 2024 MOT record to ensure it has not worsened.
This black 2016 Audi A6 2.0L diesel has recorded 71,300 miles as of its last test, placing it below the model's average annual mileage. The MOT history shows four consecutive passes between 2022 and 2025. While previous tests noted issues with suspension bushings and tyre wear, the most recent inspection in August 2025 was a clean pass with no defects recorded.
The A6 maintains a solid aggregate MOT pass rate of 85.2%, with the most common failures relating to headlamps, suspension arms, and tyres.
