Our Verdict
A strong candidate for buyers seeking a
When inspecting this specific 3.0L petrol model, focus on the service history to ensure the larger engine has received the appropriate maintenance intervals. While the MOT history shows no defects, you should verify if the oil and cooling systems have been regularly attended to, as these are vital for higher-capacity petrol engines.
Negotiate based on the mileage; while the record is clean, the vehicle has covered roughly 11,000 miles per year, which is higher than the aggregate average for this model. Check for any signs of wear on the interior and exterior that might not be captured by an MOT test, particularly around the braking components and suspension.
Running this 2995cc petrol engine will result in higher fuel costs and potentially higher insurance groups compared to the smaller-displacement diesel alternatives. Expect fuel economy to be lower than the average A4, especially in stop-start traffic.
Maintenance costs for a 3.0L Audi can be higher due to the complexity of the powertrain. While the MOT history shows no failures to date, you should budget for more significant service items such as spark plugs and potential suspension component replacements, which are common across the wider Audi A4 model range.
Given the aggregate data for this model, pay close attention to the suspension, specifically looking for signs of wear in the coil springs and suspension arms. Although this specific vehicle has had no MOT failures, these are the most common reasons for failure across the 307,017 vehicles analysed.
Additionally, check the condition of the windscreen wipers and the overall state of the windscreen, as these are frequent failure points for the A4. For this 3.0L petrol variant, a thorough check of the engine bay for any signs of fluid leaks is also recommended, as MOT tests do not always capture slow-developing leaks.
This 2017 Audi A4, finished in black, shows a consistent pattern of MOT passes dating back to 2022. With 69,538 miles recorded in its most recent July 2026 test, it has covered more than the model average of 8,139 miles per year, but it has done so without a single recorded MOT failure or defect. The 3.0L petrol engine variant represents a higher-specification powertrain compared to the standard diesel models often seen in this segment.
Aggregate data for the Audi A4 shows an 80.8% MOT pass rate, with common issues relating to suspension components and wipers.

Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2017 model year cars.
- Water Pump / Thermostat LeaksModerate
Later petrol and diesel engines still suffer coolant leaks from pumps or plastic thermostat housings.
- AdBlue SCR System NOx Sensor & Tank Heater FailureSerious
On 2.0 TDI and 3.0 TDI diesel models, failing downstream NOx sensors or crystallized AdBlue dosing injectors trigger a persistent dashboard no-restart countdown.
- Front Suspension Multi-Link Upper Control Arm Bushing WearModerate
The five-link front suspension utilizes rubber-metal hydro-bushings on the upper control arms that crack and tear, leading to vague high-speed steering and knocking over potholes.
