2013 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · PK13 HVB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a concerning trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in February 2026 at 219,155 miles passed, it carried advisories for a front inner tyre reaching the legal limit and a perished offside rear tyre. This mirrors a pattern seen in February 2025 where the car initially failed due to an oil leak, worn suspension bushes, and tyre damage before being rectified for a pass. The data suggests the owner addresses faults only when they threaten an MOT rather than replacing components before they fail. At 219,155 miles, this 13-year-old Audi has covered significantly more ground than average, nearly 17,000 miles annually. This high-intensity usage profile accelerates the wear of heavy mechanical and rubber components. Between February 2024 and February 2025, the vehicle covered over 17,000 miles in a single year, which rapid accumulation puts constant stress on the drivetrain and suspension assemblies. The relatively clean record from February 2023 at 179,065 miles stands as an anomaly in a history that otherwise shows frequent degradation of wear-related parts. A buyer must focus the physical inspection on the front suspension, as the record shows repeated failures of inner suspension arm bushes and anti-roll bar linkage pins across 2024 and 2025. These recurring issues indicate the rubber components are reaching the end of their life due to high mileage. The central front oil leak noted in 2025 also requires a close look to ensure it remains a minor weeping rather than a more significant engine seal failure. Given the history of uneven tyre wear across multiple tests, the wheel alignment should be verified to prevent further premature destruction of new tyres.
