2007 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · WM07 VDC

The vehicle remains roadworthy but the maintenance history shows a stable trend of deferred attention regarding braking and rubber components. The most recent test in June 2025 at 78,301 miles noted that rear brake discs were pitted and scored, which is a recurring issue also documented in July 2024 at 75,652 miles and June 2022 at 69,930 miles. While the vehicle consistently passes, these persistent faults suggest reactive maintenance rather than preventative replacement. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 78,301 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 4,121 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns with intervals of roughly 2,700 to 3,000 miles between annual tests since 2021. However, low-mileage usage often leads to age-related degradation rather than mechanical wear, as evidenced by the repeated reports of perishing and cracking tyres noted between 2022 and 2023. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system, specifically checking for corrosion on the offside front brake hose ferrule flagged in 2021 and 2022. The binding issue on the nearside front brake reported in 2024 indicates a potentially sticking caliper that requires investigation to ensure even pad wear. Given the history of perishing tyres and scored discs, the condition of all rubber components and suspension bushings should be thoroughly scrutinized for dry rot and cracking despite the low odometer mileage.
