2017 Audi Q7 3.0L Diesel · MJ67 AEG

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with no significant mechanical degradation evident in the recent MOT history. The most recent test on 6 October 2025 at 116,358 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of passing tests since 2022, suggesting that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that satisfies statutory requirements without recurring failures. The mileage accumulation indicates heavy usage for a nine-year-old vehicle. The car has covered 116,358 miles, averaging approximately 12,929 miles per year. The data shows a significant increase in annual mileage between the 2022 test at 74,299 miles and the 2023 test at 89,762 miles, representing over 15,000 miles in a single year. This higher-than-average usage pattern places increased stress on consumable components and heavy mechanical systems compared to lower-mileage examples. A single failure recorded on 25 September 2023 at 89,762 miles suggests a minor issue that was rectified within 24 hours, as the vehicle passed the subsequent test. While the MOT record is clean, the high mileage necessitates a thorough physical inspection of the suspension system. Given the weight and usage of an Audi Q7, a buyer should specifically check for worn control arm bushings, leaking shock absorbers, and excessive play in the steering linkage. The buyer should also examine the condition of the braking system and underbody. While no binding calipers or worn discs were flagged in the recent tests, the high mileage increases the likelihood of uneven brake wear or thinning discs. Inspecting the structural integrity for corrosion on the subframes and checking the condition of the drive belts and various rubber hoses is also recommended to ensure the vehicle's long-term reliability.
