2010 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · WG60 AEX

The Audi A4 presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed the most recent test on 23 July 2025 at 194,825 miles with no defects recorded. Maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with consecutive passes from May 2022 through July 2025 and no advisories raised. The isolated failure on 11 May 2022 at 158,865 miles, showing no defects, resolved within twenty-four hours via a pass on 12 May 2022, suggesting an administrative or procedural anomaly rather than escalating mechanical decline. Mileage stands at 194,825 on a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 12,177 miles per year, which is high for the age and points to sustained regular use. The records show smooth annual increments: 158,865 in May 2022, 170,572 in May 2023, 182,101 in May 2024, and 194,825 by July 2025. No prolonged gaps or sudden accumulation spikes appear; the roughly 11,000 to 12,000 mile yearly spread indicates consistent commuter or motorway cycling. Sparse defect data across these tests implies previous owners kept the car to minimum test standards, though a clean sheet at this mileage does not confirm component health. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of high-stress items not always caught in MOT checks. The tester logged no suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc wear, yet at near 195,000 miles these components likely approach replacement thresholds. Examine subframe and sill areas for corrosion threatening structural integrity, given the vehicle's age and winter exposure risk. Check binding calipers and exhaust emissions during a warm engine run, as intermittent faults may evade a static test. Previous owners sustained the car through four successive passes without advisory flags, which reflects either diligent consumable replacement or test tolerance. Regardless, the drivetrain and steering geometry warrant scrutiny on a road test to detect vague handling or drivetrain vibration unseen on paperwork.
