2020 Audi E-Tron S Line 55 Quattro Electricity · RE70 MHO

The Audi e-tron S Line 55 Quattro presents a mixed mechanical picture despite its recent January 2026 pass at 58,312 miles. The maintenance trend is currently worsening, with the most recent test flagging two suspension advisories after two consecutive clean passes in 2023 and 2025. The offside front upper suspension arm pin or bush worn but not resulting in excessive movement and the rear arm inner bush split indicate the vehicle's rubber suspension components are now deteriorating. The tester also noted a large crack in the lower part of the windscreen zone A, which did not fail the test but warrants monitoring. These are the first recorded defects on the vehicle, suggesting the car has moved from a period of trouble-free ownership into an age-related wear phase that demands closer attention. The mileage accumulation is consistent at roughly 9,719 miles per year, which is typical for a six-year-old vehicle. The record shows a notable gap between the December 2023 test at 15,690 miles and the January 2025 test at 31,888 miles, representing a 16,198-mile jump over thirteen months. This is a higher-than-average annual rate for that period and may reflect heavier use or motorway commuting. The subsequent 26,424-mile increase between January 2025 and January 2026 confirms sustained high mileage, which places greater stress on consumable components such as brake discs, tyres, and suspension bushes. The sparse MOT history, with only three tests recorded, limits the ability to identify long-term patterns, but the clean passes in 2023 and 2025 suggest the vehicle was well maintained during its earlier life. A buyer should inspect the front and rear suspension bushes in person, particularly the offside front upper arm and the rear arm inner bush, as split or worn bushes affect handling precision and can accelerate tyre wear. The windscreen crack in zone A should be assessed against current MOT standards, as damage that was borderline in January 2026 may worsen over time. Given the high mileage and recent suspension advisories, the coil springs, shock absorbers, and anti-roll bar links should also be checked for wear or corrosion. The brake discs, pads, and calipers merit inspection, as sustained high-mileage use increases the risk of binding calipers or uneven disc wear. No exhaust emissions data is relevant here given the vehicle's electric drivetrain, but the high-voltage battery health and charging system should be evaluated separately through an Audi specialist diagnostic check.
