2015 Audi SQ5 TDI Quattro Auto 3.0L Diesel · LS08 JJS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available history. The most recent test on 9 September 2025 at 111,388 miles passed with no defects recorded, following an unexplained failure in August of the same year when the odometer showed 110,910 miles. Because that failure recorded no specific defects, it suggests an administrative error or a minor non-presentation issue that was rectified immediately, rather than a pattern of mechanical decline or structural degradation. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 17,037 miles between the December 2022 test at 76,121 miles and the January 2024 test at 93,158 miles, which indicates a period of higher use. The subsequent accumulation of 18,230 miles over the last 20 months shows the vehicle is currently driven regularly, which is generally beneficial for maintaining the diesel particulate filter and Quattro system. Given that the record is clean of recurring mechanical advisories, a physical inspection should focus on high-wear components typical for this mileage bracket. You should examine the front control arm bushes and coil springs for fatigue, as these often perish around the 100,000-mile mark. Checking the brake discs for thinning and the calipers for seizing is also advisable, as the MOT record does not flag binding issues or uneven wear in previous tests.
