2019 Audi Q3 1.5L Petrol · NJ19 FNF

The vehicle achieved a PASS at the most recent MOT on 26 September 2025, recorded at 33 732 miles, but the test revealed several advisories: offside and nearside front tyres showing slight damage or perishing, front and rear brake discs worn, pitted or scored, and a near‑side rear tyre with an embedded nail. These findings contrast with the three preceding passes (April 2022, October 2023 and September 2024) which reported no defects, indicating a deteriorating maintenance trend rather than a stable one. Mileage progression shows a low overall average for a 2019 model, yet the annual increase has accelerated. Between September 2024 (27 622 mi) and September 2025 (33 732 mi) the car logged 6 110 miles in twelve months, exceeding the earlier average of roughly 4 800 mi per year. The gap from April 2022 (16 910 mi) to October 2023 (22 555 mi) added 5 645 miles in about eight months, suggesting periods of lighter use followed by a more intensive recent period. The data set is sparse after 2022, with only three subsequent tests, but the recent mileage jump is notable. A prospective buyer should closely inspect the front tyres for any cracking or perishing, verify the condition of both front and rear brake discs for scoring or pitting, and examine the near‑side rear tyre for foreign objects that could cause a puncture. The suspension bushes and coil springs should be checked for wear, as the recent tyre damage may indicate exposure to rough surfaces. Finally, a thorough visual survey for corrosion or structural rust around the wheel arches and underbody is advisable, given the vehicle’s age and the presence of tyre damage that could signal exposure to road hazards.
