2015 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · LP15 SVO

As a 1968cc diesel, this A6 is designed for efficient long-distance cruising, though running costs will depend heavily on driving style and annual mileage. Expect moderate fuel economy typical of a premium diesel saloon. Tax and insurance groups for a 2015 A6 vary, but buyers should check the specific insurance group for this 2.0L variant.

Maintenance costs for this model can be higher than non-premium brands, particularly when addressing suspension components or large-diameter tyres (the 2023 MOT noted 255/35zr20 tyres). Budget for regular oil changes and potential upcoming work on the braking system and suspension bushes as indicated by the recent MOT history.

Priority should be given to the front suspension. The February 2026 MOT specifically flagged worn pins or bushes on both the nearside and offside front suspension arms. Test drive the vehicle over uneven surfaces to listen for knocks or knocks that might indicate these bushes have progressed beyond the 'not resulting in excessive movement' stage.

Secondly, inspect the braking system. The recent MOT noted thin front brake pads; check the thickness of the pads and the condition of the discs. Finally, examine all tyres. The 2023 MOT record shows a history of both edge wear and cracking/perishing on the 20-inch tyres, so look for uneven wear patterns or age-related cracking on the sidewalls.
