2017 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · MM17 UTV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the most recent inspection indicates a shift from a clean record toward minor consumable neglect. After three consecutive years of zero defects between 2022 and 2025, the January 2026 test at 105,906 miles introduced two advisories. These involve a defective nearside headlamp lens and a nearside rear tyre showing uneven wear on the inner edge, suggesting that basic maintenance is now requiring attention to prevent future mechanical failure. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a typical-use vehicle, averaging approximately 11,700 miles per annum. The data shows steady accumulation, with a jump of 13,653 miles recorded between January 2024 and January 2025, and another 13,663 miles between the January 2025 and January 2026 tests. This regularity suggests the car has been used regularly rather than sitting, which generally helps prevent seal degradation and component corrosion associated with long periods of inactivity. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the suspension geometry and tyre components. The reported inner-edge wear on the nearside rear tyre often indicates an alignment issue, worn suspension bushes, or a failing control arm that needs adjustment. While the headlamp damage is noted as having no effect on output, the housing should be checked for moisture ingress which could lead to condensation. Given the lack of recorded structural rust or brake defects in the previous five years, the primary focus remains on these newly emerged wear-related items.
