2022 Audi Q5 Sport 40 TDI Mhev Quat S-A 2.0L Diesel · T29 MPC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent recorded data. The last inspection conducted on 9 October 2021 at 61,036 miles returned a clean pass with no defects or advisories noted. This indicates that at that time, the vehicle met all minimum safety and emissions standards, though the lack of data for the preceding five years creates a significant gap in the documented maintenance history. The mileage is notably low for an eleven-year-old Audi SUV, averaging approximately 5,500 miles per year. While low mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, it also increases the risk of rubber-based components degrading due to age. The five-year interval between the October 2021 test and the current date of June 2026 suggests the car has been used infrequently or sat for extended periods, which can lead to hidden issues that are not captured in a standard MOT test. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of components susceptible to age-related failure rather than mileage-related wear. Check the suspension assembly bushes, shock absorbers, and control arm bushings for cracking or perished rubber despite the low mileage. The braking system should be evaluated for binding calipers or seized pistons, which frequently occur when vehicles remain stationary for long durations. Additionally, inspect the underside for structural corrosion on the exhaust and mounting points to ensure the chassis integrity remains sound despite the lack of recent testing data.
