2011 Audi Q5 2.0L Diesel · ML61 YSZ

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable and improving maintenance trend. Following the most recent test conducted in October 2025 at 102,590 miles, the car passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This reflects a clean record over the last four years, indicating that any previous mechanical concerns have been addressed and the vehicle currently remains in good condition. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a fifteen-year-old luxury SUV, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per annum. Between October 2021 and October 2025, the vehicle covered 15,016 miles, showing a steady usage profile without long periods of neglect or rapid spikes in mileage. This low mileage relative to the age generally reduces the wear on high-stress components like the drivetrain, though it does not rule out age-related degradation of rubber components which can fail due to time rather than just distance. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension, as the 2021 test at 87,574 miles flagged both the nearside and offside front lower arm bushes as worn. While these issues were resolved in subsequent tests, the age of the vehicle suggests other rubber bushings and ball joints may be nearing the end of their service. It is also prudent to check for structural corrosion on the chassis and exhaust system, as these are common areas of failure for this model that do not always trigger an MOT failure until they become significant.
