2013 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · X2 KBA

A pattern of recurring braking and tyre wear defines the recent history of this vehicle, following more significant structural and suspension failures in earlier years. The pass achieved on 2026-07-27 continues a trend of unaddressed advisories regarding pitted front brake discs and worn tyres that first appeared in 2025. Earlier records from 2021 highlight more critical issues, including a dangerous undertray detachment and a fractured nearside rear coil spring. The recorded mileage of 104,792 miles over a thirteen year period represents a typical annual accumulation of roughly 8,061 miles. This usage profile suggests standard wear on the drivetrain and suspension components consistent with the vehicle's age. The consistency of the annual testing intervals indicates the vehicle has remained in active use without prolonged periods of standing. Immediate inspection of the braking system and tyre tread is required, as the 2026 and 2025 records both flag worn, pitted, or scored inner brake discs on the front axle. On a test drive, the buyer should feel for any vibration or judder through the brake pedal, which can be a symptom of the recorded disc pitting. The repeated advisories for the offside front and offside rear tyres indicate they are close to the legal limit and will likely need replacement. The 2021 failure for a fractured nearside rear coil spring, combined with advisories for a deteriorating nearside front top suspension mount and a misting shock absorber, suggests a history of suspension wear. Listen for knocks or clunks when driving over uneven surfaces and check for excessive bouncing. Additionally, the 2021 record notes that sill covers were fitted, which prevented the DVSA inspector from testing the outer sills; consequently, the condition of the sills remains an unknown factor in the vehicle's structural assessment.
