MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

12 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Audi A4 (YP12 PPK) between February 2015 and December 2024.

The record contains 11 passes and 1 failure.

The most recent test on 20 December 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 1 failure that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (11 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Windscreen (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 28 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside Rear Lower Shock absorbers has an excessively worn bush (5.3.2 (c))”; “Nearside Front Outer Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt ”; “Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”.
