2017 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · KT67 CSO

Across five consecutive MOT tests spanning from December 2021 through late December 2025, this 2017 Audi A4 has recorded a clean pass on every occasion with no advisories or defects logged whatsoever. This represents a notably unblemished roadworthiness record for a nine-year-old executive saloon, suggesting that the vehicle has consistently presented in sound mechanical order at the point of test. The latest examination on 24 December 2025 returned a pass with no defects, continuing the established pattern of clean outcomes. With no recorded advisories across a four-year testing window, there are no specific component wear trends or emerging concerns documented by DVSA that would require immediate investigation, though the absence of advisories also means that minor issues may simply not have been flagged or may have been rectified between tests without being recorded. The recorded mileage of 65,868 miles over approximately nine years equates to an annual accumulation rate of around 7,300 miles, which sits squarely within typical usage parameters for a vehicle of this age and class. There are no significant gaps between annual tests that would suggest prolonged periods off the road, and no abrupt jumps in mileage between consecutive tests that might indicate inconsistent usage or clock-related anomalies. At this moderate accumulation, consumable wear items such as brake pads, discs, tyres, and service-related components would have experienced routine but not excessive replacement cycles, while major mechanical assemblies including the engine, transmission, and drivetrain should remain well within their design tolerances provided the manufacturer service schedule has been adhered to. For a prospective buyer, the absence of advisories means there is no specific component history to investigate, but the Audi A4 platform is known for certain wear items that may not yet have surfaced on MOT records. On a test drive, listen for any knocking or clonking noises from the front suspension over uneven surfaces, particularly from the lower control arm bushes and anti-roll bar drop links, as these are common wear points on B9-platform A4s approaching higher mileages. Check for any pulling to one side under braking, which could indicate binding calipers or warped front discs, and feel for vibration through the steering wheel at higher speeds that might point to tyre wear patterns or alignment issues. Inspect the underside of the vehicle for any signs of oil seepage from the engine or transmission, particularly around the turbocharger oil feed lines and the rear main area, as oil leaks can develop progressively without necessarily triggering an MOT failure until they become more pronounced. Additionally, given the vehicle's age and the prevalence of corrosion-related advisories on similar cars in MOT records, a careful visual inspection of the brake lines, fuel lines, and suspension subframes is worthwhile, even though none have been flagged here. Examine the inner wheel arches, the area behind the front wheels, and the underbody seams for any bubbling or surface corrosion that could become a future concern. Verify that all electronic systems function correctly, including the infotainment display, climate control, parking sensors, and any driver assistance systems fitted to the vehicle, as electrical faults are increasingly common MOT reasons on vehicles of this age but would only be recorded if they affected the specific testable items. Finally, confirm the full service history with supporting documentation, as a clean MOT record combined with verified regular maintenance represents the most reliable indicator of a well-sorted used vehicle.
