2016 Audi A6 3.0L Diesel · LR16 AAF

This 2016 Audi A6 has demonstrated consistent MOT compliance over five consecutive annual tests, all passing without defects or advisories. The most recent inspection on 2026-02-14 at 134,832 miles confirms no immediate failings, though the absence of advisories suggests either thorough servicing or a vehicle that has not yet reached critical wear thresholds. The stability of this record—four consecutive clean passes—indicates no recurring mechanical issues were escalating, though the lack of advisories does not preclude underlying wear that hasn’t yet triggered MOT failures. The recorded mileage of 134,832 miles over ten years equates to an average of approximately 13,500 miles annually, which is elevated for a vehicle of this age. Between tests, mileage increased by roughly 9,500 miles each year, with no prolonged periods of inactivity. The consistent accumulation suggests regular use, which may accelerate wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components. Notably, there are no gaps in the MOT history, meaning the vehicle has not been off-road or stored for extended periods, which could have introduced different risks. Given the high mileage and the absence of advisories in recent tests, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension integrity, particularly the rear suspension bushes and coil springs, which often degrade predictably at this mileage. The brakes, while not failed, may exhibit uneven wear or binding calipers—common in high-mileage vehicles—so a dynamic test on a test track or professional brake inspection is advisable. Structural corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and sills, should also be examined, as this is a critical failure point for Audi models of this era. The engine bay and exhaust system should be checked for leaks or excessive corrosion, as these are often overlooked but can lead to costly repairs if ignored.
