2018 Audi Q5 2.0L Petrol · SB18 ABX

The 2018 Audi Q5 presents a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent test on 19 May 2025 at 108,150 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. Prior tests in May 2024 at 92,983 miles and May 2023 at 72,738 miles also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed entry logged on 26 May 2023 at 72,738 miles showing no defects recorded, a clear administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. The vehicle's maintenance record shows no recurring advisories or escalating wear issues across the five-year span reviewed. Annual mileage averages 13,519 against an eight-year lifespan, placing this Q5 above typical usage for its class. The records chart steady accumulation: 52,414 miles in May 2022, 72,738 by May 2023, 92,983 by May 2024, and 108,150 by May 2025. No standing periods or sudden jumps appear. The clean test history at each interval suggests the previous keeper kept basic servicing current, though the sparse data leaves consumable condition between tests unverified. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness given the high mileage and eight-year age. The MOT record flags no corrosion or structural integrity concerns, yet DVSA tests exempt underbody scrutiny if surfaces are obscured. Drivetrain mounts and exhaust emissions components warrant a cold-start examination. The duplicated 26 May 2023 entry with a fail but zero defects should be checked against the DVSA portal to confirm it was a data error, not a suppressed fault. Beyond that administrative query, the paper trail supports a mechanically sound example with no warning signs of neglected upkeep.
