2012 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · LP12 TXN

The 2025‑08‑14 MOT at 76,151 miles resulted in a pass, confirming current roadworthiness, though the undertray installation prevented full inspection of many components, so the assessment relies on visible items; the maintenance trend remains stable, with no new defects recorded since the 2024‑07‑29 test at 65,193 miles. Over fourteen years the vehicle has covered 76,151 miles, averaging 5,439 miles per year, a low figure that points to limited use or extended standing periods; mileage increments were modest until 2024, when the 2024‑07‑23 failure at 65,020 miles was followed by a 173‑mile increase to the 2024‑07‑29 pass, and a sudden rise of 10,958 miles to the 2025‑08‑14 test, indicating recent increased usage. A buyer should therefore inspect the near‑side front suspension arm pin and bush for wear, examine the rear console bush for splitting, and verify tyre condition, especially the near‑side front inner tyre that has shown cuts reaching the ply and wear close to the legal limit; the history also records binding rear brakes and worn brake discs on earlier occasions, so a brake system check is prudent, and a thorough visual assessment of the chassis, suspension mounting points and wheel arches is advisable to detect any concealed structural rust.
