2022 Audi A3 S Line 35 Tfsi Mhev S-A 1.5L Petrol · WN22 YCG

The 2022 Audi A3 S Line 35 TFSI MHEV S-A holds a current, valid MOT following its most recent test on 19 February 2026 at 31,424 miles. The overall maintenance trend is stable but reveals a recurring pattern of uneven tyre wear that has persisted across multiple annual inspections. The vehicle passed both recorded tests, yet the repeat nature of the advisories suggests a standing issue rather than a one-off event. No structural, mechanical, or braking defects have been flagged, which is a positive indicator of core mechanical health. The mileage accumulation is consistent and unremarkable for a four-year-old vehicle. Between the March 2025 test at 26,332 miles and the February 2026 test at 31,424 miles, the car covered 5,092 miles in approximately eleven months, aligning with the overall annual average of roughly 7,856 miles. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in the recorded data. The record is sparse with only two entries, both of which are passes, so the documented history is clean but limited in depth. Both MOTs flagged tyre wear advisories, and the pattern is telling. In March 2025, both front tyres were noted as worn close to the legal limit at 2.5mm. By February 2026, the fronts had presumably been replaced, yet both rear tyres were now flagged as worn close to the legal limit and worn on edge. This rotation of wear from axle to axle across consecutive tests points to either a tyre specification issue, a suspension alignment fault, or a driving style that loads one axle disproportionately. Edge wear specifically suggests toe or camber misalignment rather than simple under-inflation. A buyer should inspect the current tyre condition and request a four-wheel alignment check before purchase. The suspension bushes, coil springs, and dampers deserve a close visual inspection for any signs of premature wear or corrosion, given the recurring tyre wear pattern. The brake discs and pads should be measured, as uneven tyre wear can sometimes correlate with binding calipers or uneven braking forces. The exhaust and MHEV system operation should also be verified during a test drive, particularly cold-start behaviour and regenerative braking response, to ensure the mild hybrid system is functioning as designed.
