2017 Audi A4 2.0L Petrol · RA17 RYZ

The 2026-04-15 test at 63,880 miles confirms that the vehicle is roadworthy for the current date, but the 2026-04-14 failure indicates a critical structural risk that has not been corrected. The most recent MOT shows the suspension and braking systems are in acceptable condition, though the 2026-04-14 failure reveals significant issues with the rear child seat, wheel fixing, and coil springs that have not been addressed. This suggests a pattern of neglect regarding the rear axle and suspension, which requires inspection to prevent future structural failures. The mileage history reveals a clear trend of rapid accumulation, particularly during the 2026-04-14 and 2026-04-15 tests. The vehicle's mileage increased by over 50,000 miles between these two dates, indicating that the owner has not maintained the car for a full year despite its age of roughly nine years. This rapid growth suggests that the vehicle has likely been driven less frequently than expected, or that the owner has been unable to account for increased wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. To ensure safety, the buyer must inspect the rear child seat, wheel fixing, and coil springs in person. The 2026-04-14 failure indicates that these components were likely removed or neglected, leading to a structural integrity risk. The buyer should also verify the exhaust emissions, as the carbon monoxide readings during the 2026-04-14 and 2026-04-15 tests suggest potential performance issues that may require immediate professional diagnosis.
