MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Audi A6 (PLZ 4164) between April 2009 and October 2020.

The record contains 12 passes and 4 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (9 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Windscreen (2 issues), Suspension (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 11 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside Rear Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”; “Offside Headlamp aim so that beam "kick up" is not visible on the screen (4.1.2 (a))”; “Nearside Headlamp aim so that beam "kick up" is not visible on the screen (4.1.2 (a))”.
