2015 Audi Q7 3.0L Diesel · MV65 FGA

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, having passed five consecutive MOT tests over the last four years. The most recent inspection in September 2025 at 85,244 miles indicates the car remains mechanically sound, though it marks the first instance of recorded wear on consumables. The advisory for front brake pads at 3mm and rear pads at 3/4mm suggests the braking system is nearing the end of its service interval and requires attention shortly to prevent failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old luxury SUV, averaging approximately 7,750 miles per year. Between September 2021 at 50,268 miles and September 2025 at 85,244 miles, the vehicle covered 34,976 miles, representing a steady and moderate usage profile. The lack of defects in the 2022 and 2024 tests suggests that the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme stress or neglect, which would typically accelerate the degradation of rubber-based components on this chassis. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and tyre geometry. The 2023 test at 71,398 miles flagged both rear tyres as worn to the legal limit and on the edge, which often indicates alignment issues or worn control arm bushes. Given the age and weight of the Q7, a thorough check of the wish arm bushings and shock absorbers is necessary to ensure the uneven tyre wear has been rectified. While the current brake pad advisory is minor, the discs should be inspected for scoring or uneven thinning when the pads are replaced to ensure optimal stopping performance.
