2016 Audi Q5 3.0L Diesel · WH02 ACE

The vehicle presents a consistent maintenance record, with the most recent test on July 2, 2025 at 70,724 miles resulting in a pass with no recorded defects. This follows a similar pattern from July 2024 at 64,922 miles, where an initial failure was immediately rectified by a pass. The absence of advisories on the last two successful tests suggests that the previous owner addressed necessary repairs promptly rather than allowing minor wear to escalate into mechanical failure. The structural integrity of the vehicle appears to be stable over the last three testing cycles. At ten years old, the recorded mileage of 70,724 miles reflects an annual average of approximately 7,000 miles, which aligns with typical UK usage for a premium SUV of this age. This lower mileage generally suggests reduced wear on high-stress drivetrain components and suspension assemblies compared to higher-mileage examples. However, the interval of 9,600 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests indicates steady use, which can lead to the natural degradation of rubber components such as suspension bushes and wiper blades despite the relatively low odometer reading. The MOT history shows no recurring advisories regarding brake corrosion, exhaust leaks, or tyre depth, which are common failure points for vehicles of this era. Since the most recent inspection occurred less than a year prior to the current date, the vehicle remains within its valid roadworthiness window. A prospective buyer should still verify the physical condition of the brake discs and pads for signs of uneven wear, as the record does not indicate a history of persistent mechanical issues being left unaddressed.
