2019 Audi A4 2.0L Petrol · KV19 STJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows signs of neglect regarding preventative upkeep. While the most recent test in February 2026 at 61,333 miles passed, it revealed an advisory for a front tyre worn close to the legal limit and unevenly. This follows a clean result in 2025, indicating that while the car passes mechanically, consumable components are now reaching the point of replacement. The recorded mileage of 61,333 miles is consistent with the vehicle's seven-year age, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per year. The data shows a steady rate of use, with a 7,400-mile gap between September 2023 and September 2024, and another 12,000 miles in the final year. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stationary storage, which is generally beneficial for engine seals and various rubber components. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and drivetrain based on previous failures. The September 2024 failure highlighted a split nearside front drive consistent boot and corrosion on the offside rear artwork spring mounting. Although these were rectified or noted, the presence of corrosion on the spring mounting suggests an environment where road salts may accelerate degradation, which should be monitored for further structural rust in the rear assembly. Furthermore, the 2026 advisory regarding uneven edge wear on the front tyre indicates a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushings. The purchaser should verify that the alignment has been recently checked and inspect the driveshaft for any remaining signs of grease leakage. Given the history of a split boot, a close look at the CV joints is essential to ensure no internal damage has resulted from the previous failure.
