2015 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · L3 CVK

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a transition from consumable wear to developing suspension issues. The most recent test in October 2025 at 92,759 miles identified worn bushes on both front lower suspension arm pins and rear bushes. While these did not result in a failure, they indicate that the rubber components are beginning to reach their functional limit. This follows a progression from previous years where minor issues like leaking shock absorbers and thinning brake pads were noted. At 92,759 miles over eleven years, the Audi has averaged approximately 8,400 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The mileage data shows consistent intervals, with roughly 12,000 miles covered between the October 2023 and October 2025 tests. This regular use suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which generally helps prevent the degradation of fluid seals, though the cumulative mileage now accounts for the gradual fatigue of rubber-based suspension components. A buyer should physically inspect the front suspension closely to ensure the flagged worn bushes have not caused significant steering play or uneven tyre wear. The light misting on the rear shock absorbers noted in 2022 and 2023 should be checked for active leaking, which would necessitate immediate unit replacement. Additionally, since the offside rear brake pads were flagged as thin in late 2024, the remaining life on those components should be verified to ensure they were replaced following that last advisory.
