2008 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · KV08 WNM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history shows a clear trend of worsening suspension-related defects. While the car passed its most recent test in March 2025 at 103,686 miles, the record indicates a progressive degradation of mechanical components. The transition from a clean test in 2021 to recurring advisories suggests that the suspension system is reaching the end of its service life. At 103,686 miles, this 18-year-old Audi has covered significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 5,760 miles per year. The major accumulation is consistent, with intervals of roughly 5,000 to 7,000 miles between annual tests since 2021. While low mileage suggests less strain on the engine and drivetrain, it often correlates with accelerated aging of rubber components and corrosion due to time, which is consistent with the findings in the MOT history. A prospective buyer should prioritize a thorough inspection of the front and rear suspension assemblies. The upper suspension arm bushes have been flagged for wear in four consecutive years since 2022, and while they have not yet resulted in a failure, their condition is deteriorating. Furthermore, the recurring corrosion on the rear coil springs, noted in both 2024 and 2025, indicates that structural rust on these metal components is advancing and will likely require immediate replacement to prevent future failure.
