2020 Audi A4 2.0L Petrol · S7 TCT

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT in November 2025 at 140,467 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a period of significant neglect in early 2023. While the latest test is clean, the historical data indicates a vehicle that has operated under high-stress conditions where preventative maintenance was only addressed after failing a formal test. The mileage profile is exceptionally high for a six-year-old Audi, averaging over 23,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent, rapid accumulation, with nearly 9,500 miles covered between the November 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 9,572 miles recorded between November 2024 and 2025. This level of usage puts accelerated strain on the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and braking components compared to a typical domestic-use vehicle of this age. A buyer must pay close attention to the recurring issues with tyre management. In January 2023 at 99,356 miles, the vehicle failed on four tyres for insufficient tread and a structural failure on the nearside rear. By November 2024 at 130,895 miles, three tyres were again flagged for being near the legal limit or uneven wear. This suggests a pattern of ignoring consumable components until they reach failure point, which can also mask underlying alignment issues or worn suspension geometry causing premature wear. The failure in early 2023 due to an inoperative Engine Malfunction Lamp warrants a thorough diagnostic scan to ensure no intermittent electronic faults were simply cleared without repair. Given the high annual mileage, a physical inspection of the undercarriage for oil leaks, turbocharger wear, and the condition of the control arm bushes is essential. The lack of advisories in the most recent tests is positive, but the sheer mileage suggests that mechanical components are likely nearing the end of their primary service intervals.
