2015 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · WN65 OCX

The latest MOT test conducted on 12 September 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. Evaluating the broader history, the maintenance trend appears stable and generally positive. While there have been intermittent advisories over the previous seven years, the most recent clean certificate suggests that the vehicle is currently being maintained to a satisfactory standard and that previous wear-and-tear issues have likely been rectified. The recorded mileage of 109,740 miles over approximately eleven years equates to an annual average of roughly 9,976 miles. This is considered typical usage for an executive saloon of this vintage, indicating a consistent history of use without the risks associated with prolonged standing or the accelerated wear found in high-mileage examples. At this stage of its life, the vehicle has transitioned beyond its initial reliability phase, meaning the focus for a buyer should shift toward the condition of long-term consumables and chassis components. The MOT history highlights specific areas of mechanical wear that necessitate a thorough inspection. Previous advisories regarding split front lower suspension arm bushes and misting rear shock absorbers indicate a gradual degradation of the suspension system. On a test drive, the buyer should listen for knocks or clunks when driving over speed bumps or uneven road surfaces and feel for any instability or excessive bouncing at the rear. Additionally, the 2024 advisory for worn rear brake discs suggests the braking system is nearing a replacement cycle. The buyer should check for brake shudder during deceleration and inspect the discs for significant liping or surface corrosion. Beyond the recorded defects, the buyer must verify the service history for critical time-and-mileage-based maintenance. Specifically, the timing belt and water pump should be checked against the manufacturer's recommended intervals, as these are critical failure points for this engine age. A physical inspection should include checking the tyre sidewalls for perishing or cracking and verifying the health of the 12V battery. Finally, the buyer should ensure that oil and coolant changes have been performed regularly to prevent internal sludge build-up or cooling system degradation, ensuring the vehicle remains mechanically sound for its next owner.
