2013 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · TH07 ROW

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward reactive repairs. The most recent test in July 2025 at 126,870 miles resulted in a pass with only a minor advisory regarding a cut offside rear tyre. This represents an improvement from the June 2024 test where the car failed due to an exhaust leak and a faulty headlamp washer, indicating that the owner addressed specific mechanical faults following the failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Between June 2022 and June 2024, the car covered 22,174 miles, showing a steady usage profile. The interval between the June 2024 and July 2025 tests saw a further further 10,967 miles. This regular accumulation suggests the car is used consistently rather than sitting for long periods, which generally helps seals and rubber components from drying out, though with long-term inactivity. A buyer should scrutinise the exhaust system specifically, as the 2024 failure highlighted a corroded and broken clamp causing a gas leak. While the vehicle passed subsequently, the presence of corrosion on the exhaust hardware indicates that the rest of the system may be nearing structural failure. The LED headlamp cleaning device should also be verified to ensure the repair was functional rather than merely cosmetic. Given the mileage and age, a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and the undercarriage for rust is essential, as these are common points of failure for this chassis generation that are not always captured until they become significant.
