2003 Audi A4 1.9L Diesel · SB52 AMO

The 2003 Audi A4 demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its most recent MOT on 2025-02-19 at 155,802 miles. The preceding tests from 2024 and 2023 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance. A single failed test in 2022-02-14 at 152,722 miles was recorded but without specific defects, suggesting either a minor procedural failure or a resolved issue. The absence of recurring faults in later tests implies the vehicle has remained mechanically sound, though the 2022 failure warrants scrutiny for potential underlying concerns. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for the car’s age, averaging ~6,774 miles annually. Tests are spaced consistently, with minimal mileage fluctuations between assessments. The 2022-02-15 test at 152,726 miles showed no defects, yet the prior test on 2022-02-14 recorded a failure with identical mileage, raising questions about the cause. Subsequent tests indicate no persistent issues, but the sparse data from 2022-02-14 to 2022-02-15 suggests possible irregularities in testing or record-keeping. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, for wear given the vehicle’s age. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, should be checked for binding or corrosion, as these are common in older models. Structural integrity, especially around the chassis and body panels, requires scrutiny for rust or damage. While the MOT history shows no immediate red flags, the 2022 failure and the car’s advanced age necessitate a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm continued reliability.
