2017 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · NA67 DLD

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history reveals a trend of deferred attention regarding consumable components. The most recent test on March 17, 2026, at 85,114 miles passed, yet it identified perishing and cracking on both rear tyres. This issue mirrors an advisory from the March 2025 test at 80,919 miles, suggesting the owner has been delaying tyre replacements despite visible rubber degradation. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,457 miles per annum. The data shows steady usage, with roughly 4,700 miles covered between the March 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 4,200 miles recorded prior to the 2026 inspection. The single failure in March 2024 was a minor electrical fault involving an inoperative nearside rear reversing lamp, which was rectified immediately for the retest that same day. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the braking system and suspension. The October 2023 test at 72,069 miles flagged all four brake discs as worn and pitted. While these did not cause a failure at the time, the recurring nature of corrosion suggests the vehicle may sit for long periods or operate in harsh conditions. Given the noted perishing across the last three tests, the buyer should specifically check for sidewall cracks and ensure the age of the rubber has not exceeded its structural life regardless of remaining tread depth.
