2015 Audi A5 2.0L Diesel · OV15 LCF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than proactive servicing. The most recent test on October 10 2024 at 97,260 miles resulted in a failure due to a non-functional dipped headlamp and worn rear tyres. While the car passed immediately after these corrections, the recurrence of tyre wear advisories across multiple years suggests the owner only addresses consumables once they approach legal limits or cause a failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per year. There is a steady progression of roughly 9,000 miles between February 2022 and October 2023, and another 10,000 miles between October 2023 and October 2024. This regular usage suggests the car has not sat for long periods, which generally helps with seal integrity, though the approaching 100,000-mile mark marks a significant threshold for drivetrain and rubber components. A buyer must focus inspection on the suspension system, as the record confirms sports suspension was fitted prior to October 2024. Aftermarket components often alter handling geometry and place increased stress on bushings and control arms. The recurring advisories for uneven tyre wear on the rear axle in 2022 and 2024 point to potential alignment issues or worn shock absorbers that have not been properly rectified. Check for excessive play in the rear suspension joints and ensure the sports suspension is securely mounted and not causing premature wear of the tyres.
