2015 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · SF15 LHP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While it passed its latest test in December 2025 at 75,079 miles, it failed that same session due to a major exhaust leak and rotted clamps. The presence of corrosion on the rear sub-frame remains a persistent concern, having appeared in multiple consecutive tests without reaching a structural failure, suggesting that the owner only addresses mechanical faults once they reach the point of an MOT failure. The recorded mileage of 75,079 miles is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. The data shows steady annual usage, with roughly 7,000 miles covered between December 2023 and December 2024, and another 7,200 miles between December 2024 and December 2025. This consistent mileage suggests the car has not been subjected to extreme stress, though the low frequency of use often masks degradation in rubber components and fluids. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the rear sub-frame to ensure the noted corrosion in December 2025 has not progressed into structural thinning. The history shows a recurring pattern of neglecting brake and tyre consumables, with thin pads and pitted discs flagged across 2023 and 2024. Furthermore, the worn front suspension arm bushes noted in 2023 indicate that the suspension geometry is nearing the end of its service life. The recent repair of the exhaust system should be verified to ensure the major leak from the 2025 failure was properly rectified rather than merely patched.
