2022 Audi A3 S Line 30 TDI 2.0L Diesel · RJ22 SXT

The 2022 Audi A3 30 TDI S Line has passed its most recent MOT test on 11 April 2025 at 93,485 miles, with no defects recorded. This represents a stable roadworthiness trend over the available history, as the sole entry demonstrates compliance with all mandatory checks at the time of testing. The absence of advisories or failings suggests the vehicle cleared all structural, emissions, and functional tests without exception. However, the sparse MOT record—limited to a single pass—means there is no historical context for recurring issues or wear patterns beyond the most recent inspection. The recorded mileage of 93,485 miles over approximately four years indicates an average annual distance of around 23,371 miles, which is elevated for a vehicle of this age. While this suggests higher usage, the lack of intermediate MOT tests or service records means it is impossible to confirm whether maintenance intervals were adhered to or if wear-and-tear has been managed proactively. The gap between the current date (July 2026) and the last MOT (April 2025) is just under a year, which is within the standard 12-month MOT cycle. However, this short interval alone does not preclude accelerated wear on high-mileage components such as suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake calipers. Given the limited MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of critical high-mileage components. The TDI engine’s turbocharger and EGR system should be examined for soot buildup or carbon deposits, as diesel engines of this age and mileage are prone to such issues. The suspension—particularly the rear—must be checked for worn or leaking bushes, as binding or uneven ride height can develop over 90,000 miles. Brake discs and pads should be assessed for uneven wear or glazing, while the rear calipers should be tested for binding, a common fault in Audi models with this mileage. Structural integrity of the subframe and wheel arches should also be inspected for corrosion, especially if the vehicle has been exposed to salted roads or coastal environments. The absence of MOT advisories does not guarantee these areas are free from wear, but they warrant close scrutiny.
