Our Verdict

This is a strong candidate for buyers seeking a modern, relatively low-mileage diesel SUV. The clean 2025 MOT record suggests no immediate mechanical or safety defects were identified at the last inspection.

Given the mileage is well above the annual average for this model, your first priority should be to verify the service history. High-mileage diesel engines require consistent oil changes to maintain the health of the turbocharger and the mild-hybrid components. Check that the service intervals have been strictly adhered to.

When negotiating, use the higher-than-average mileage as a lever, but balance this against the fact that the vehicle passed its 2025 MOT with no defects. Ensure you check for any remaining manufacturer warranty, as a 2022 model may still have coverage which provides peace of mind against unexpected component failure.

As a 2.0L diesel with MHEV (Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle) technology, this Q5 is designed for efficiency on long runs. You can expect competitive fuel economy, though diesel prices and ULEZ/Clean Air Zone charges should be considered if driving in major UK cities.

Maintenance costs for an Audi of this age and mileage will typically be higher than a non-premium brand. Expect costs to rise as the vehicle approaches the 50,000-mile mark, particularly regarding tyres and brake components. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance, sits in the mid-to-high range for this segment.

While the most recent MOT showed no defects, the aggregate data for this model shows common failures related to windscreen wipers and washer jets. It is worth testing these specifically to ensure they are functioning perfectly.

Because this is a Quattro (all-wheel drive) model with higher-than-average mileage, inspect the tyres for even wear patterns, which can indicate suspension or drivetrain alignment issues. Additionally, check the condition of the brake discs and pads, as these are high-wear items on heavier SUVs like the Q5.

Registered in May 2022, this Audi Q5 Sport 40 TDI MHEV has covered 42,952 miles as of its last MOT in May 2025. This mileage is significantly higher than the model average of 9,659 miles per year, suggesting it has been used primarily for longer motorway journeys. The vehicle is finished in blue and features the 2.0L diesel engine with mild-hybrid technology.

The Audi Q5 shows a high average MOT pass rate of 90.4% across nearly 3,000 analysed vehicles, indicating generally stable mechanical reliability.
