2013 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · OY13 UNR

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 18 May 2026 at 155,706 miles with no recorded defects, indicating a stable mechanical status following the rectification of previous issues. While the record shows a clean pass for the most recent inspection, the history reveals a pattern of recurring maintenance neglect, particularly concerning the exhaust system and brake components. The transition from a failure in April 2024 to a clean pass in 2026 suggests that the current owner has addressed the outstanding faults, though the historical presence of structural and emissions-related issues warrants a cautious approach. Accumulating 155,706 miles over thirteen years results in an average of approximately 12,000 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for a diesel Audi A4 of this vintage. The mileage progression remains consistent across the recorded test dates, showing no significant gaps or evidence of long-term storage that might lead to seized components or perished rubber seals. The steady increase from 133,633 miles in June 2023 to the current figure confirms the vehicle has remained in regular service, meaning the mechanical wear is likely distributed across the drivetrain rather than concentrated from periods of inactivity. Prospective buyers should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear sub-frame and exhaust system, as corrosion was flagged as recently as April 2025. Although the tester noted the sub-frame was not seriously weakened at that time, structural oxidation on a vehicle of this age can progress rapidly. Furthermore, the 2024 failure regarding a tampered diesel particulate filter is a significant red flag. Verify that the current exhaust assembly is fully compliant and free of makeshift repairs to avoid future emissions test failures or engine management complications. Finally, check the condition of the brake backing plates and discs, as these components have appeared as advisories multiple times in recent years, suggesting a history of deferred maintenance on the braking system.
