2015 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · KV65 BJK

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 14 March 2026 confirmed full roadworthiness with no defects recorded, marking a stable maintenance trend over the past year. The absence of advisories or repeated failures in either the March 2025 or March 2026 tests suggests the vehicle has undergone consistent servicing, though the single failure in March 2025—unusually listed with no defects—appears anomalous and may warrant clarification from the seller. The November 2024 and October 2023 tests further reinforce this pattern, with no mechanical or structural issues raised. However, the abrupt transition from a failed test in March 2025 to a pass in November of the same year raises questions about whether underlying issues were addressed or if the failure was procedural rather than technical. The recorded mileage of 110,342 miles over approximately 11 years equates to an average of around 10,000 miles annually, which is typical for a vehicle of this age and model. There are no significant gaps in the MOT history that would indicate prolonged neglect, though the 18-month interval between the March 2025 failure and the November 2024 pass is unusual and may reflect either a delayed retest or an error in the record. The consistency of mileage accumulation suggests regular use rather than storage, which could imply more wear on high-stress components like suspension bushes, brake calipers, and drivetrain seals. No red flags emerge from the mileage pattern itself, but the lack of service history beyond MOTs means critical intervals for items like timing belts, differential fluid, or transmission service may have been overlooked. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension components—particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, which are prone to fatigue at this mileage—alongside brake systems, including rear binding calipers and front disc wear. The absence of corrosion advisories in recent tests is encouraging, but a close examination of wheel arches, subframe, and sills is advisable, especially if the vehicle has experienced wet or salted roads. Engine bay checks should focus on coolant leaks, belt tension, and exhaust manifold integrity, as these are common failure points in Audi models of this era. The lack of advisories does not preclude hidden issues, so a pre-purchase diagnostic targeting the drivetrain and electrical systems—where MOTs often overlook subtle faults—would be prudent.
