2019 Audi Q3 Sport 35 Tfsi 1.5L Petrol · YY69 LLA

The December 2025 MOT at 56,141 miles returned a pass with multiple brake advisories across all four corners, indicating a stable but maintenance-intensive trend. The vehicle failed two days before its December 2024 test at 45,120 miles on rear brake pad wear and a near-illegal rear tyre, then passed on re-test after rectification. This pattern of brake-related advisories spanning both 2024 and 2025 suggests consistent heavy wear rather than isolated neglect, though the 2024 failure does indicate a period where routine upkeep lapsed. Annual mileage has remained remarkably consistent: approximately 10,936 miles between December 2023 and December 2024, and 10,936 miles again between December 2024 and December 2025. The earlier interval from November 2022 to December 2023 shows 9,800 miles. This steady accumulation pattern points to regular use rather than sporadic long-distance runs or extended storage. The single advisory in December 2023 for a perishing rear tyre at 34,675 miles sits as a minor outlier in an otherwise clean mid-history record. Brake components demand immediate scrutiny. All four discs were flagged as worn, pitted or scored in December 2025, with front and rear pads simultaneously wearing thin. This wholesale brake wear across both axles suggests either sustained heavy braking use or caliper efficiency issues causing uneven loading. The December 2024 failure on rear pads and a below-limit rear tyre, combined with the 2023 tyre advisory, raises questions about whether rear axle components are wearing disproportionately. A prospective purchaser should inspect brake caliper slide pins for seizure, measure disc run-out, and verify pad material quality rather than merely accepting fresh replacements. Tyre age and condition across all four corners require checking given the 2024 tread failure and 2023 perishing advisory. The child seat obstruction recurring across multiple tests is a procedural note rather than mechanical concern, though it confirms consistent family use. No structural corrosion, suspension, or emissions faults appear in this record, which limits immediate concern to the brake and tyre consumables.
