About This Data
The 2013 Audi RS4 has an MOT pass rate of 87.7% based on 1,935 tests — well above the UK average for UK vehicles. Cars of this vintage present for MOT with an average of 50,073 miles on the odometer. With a 12.3% failure rate, the 2013 RS4 is rated as "Excellent" for MOT reliability.
If you own or are considering buying a 2013 Audi RS4, you can expect reliable MOT performance overall. Before your MOT, pay particular attention to tyres: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating. At 50,073 average miles, these vehicles are in the mid-range where component wear starts to become a factor.
Tyres — 0.8% of failures
Tyres issues account for 0.8% of MOT failures on 2013 Audi RS4 models. Tyre failures include tread depth below the legal minimum of 1.6mm, cuts, bulges, exposed cords, and incorrect tyre pressure. Tyres are one of the most common and easiest-to-prevent MOT failures. Typical repair costs: £50–200 per tyre. Pre-MOT check: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating.
Identification of the vehicle — 0.6% of failures
Identification of the vehicle issues account for 0.6% of MOT failures on 2013 Audi RS4 models. Identification failures relate to the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and registration plate. The VIN must be permanently displayed and legible, and the registration plate must meet British Standard formatting. Typical repair costs: £10–50. Pre-MOT check: Ensure the VIN plate is visible and legible (usually in the windscreen or under the bonnet). Check that number plates are clean, undamaged, and use the correct font and spacing.
Suspension — 0.6% of failures
Suspension issues account for 0.6% of MOT failures on 2013 Audi RS4 models. Suspension failures typically involve worn bushes, leaking shock absorbers, broken coil springs, and damaged suspension arms. These affect ride quality, tyre wear, and road holding. Typical repair costs: £200–500. Pre-MOT check: Look for uneven tyre wear, listen for clunking over bumps, and check if the car pulls to one side. A bouncy ride suggests worn shock absorbers. Visually inspect coil springs for cracks.
