2015 Audi Q7 3.0L Diesel · NA65 NWM

The 2015 Audi Q7 has maintained a consistent roadworthiness record over the past five MOT cycles, with no defects or advisories recorded in any of the tests conducted between October 2021 and January 2026. The most recent test on January 13, 2026, at 113,612 miles confirms the vehicle remains compliant with current DVSA standards, though the absence of any recorded issues does not preclude underlying wear or deferred maintenance. The lack of advisories or recurring faults suggests the vehicle has been kept in a stable condition, though the next MOT is due in January 2027, just over six months from today, meaning the current pass is nearing its expiration. The mileage progression indicates typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging around 10,300 miles annually. There are no abrupt jumps or prolonged periods of inactivity—mileage increased steadily from 60,945 miles in October 2021 to 113,612 miles in January 2026, with no gaps exceeding a year between tests. This pattern suggests consistent driving habits rather than neglect or extended storage. However, the absence of intermediate MOTs between 2023 and 2025—particularly the 12-month gap between November 2023 and October 2022—means there is no recent independent verification of condition beyond the last test. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of high-wear components that are not routinely checked during an MOT. The suspension—particularly the rear coil springs and bushes—should be examined for uneven sagging or excessive play, as these are common points of failure in high-mileage Q7 models. Brake discs and calipers, especially the rear, warrant close scrutiny for uneven wear or binding, though the lack of advisories suggests this area has been maintained. Structural integrity is also critical; check for corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, as Audi Q7s from this era are prone to rust-related issues in wet climates. Finally, the exhaust system should be inspected for leaks or excessive corrosion, as catalytic converter failures can occur without triggering an MOT advisory.
