CarHunch analysed 1,787 real MOT records for the 2022 Audi Q5 Sln Ed1 45tfsi MHEV Quat SA. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2022 Audi Q5 is a genuinely reliable proposition, passing its first MOT 93.6% of the time against the UK average of 80%—a 13.6-point margin that puts it well ahead of the pack. Only 2.6% have ever recorded a dangerous defect, so safety concerns are minimal for this cohort.
At 25,894 miles average, these cars are lightly used for their age, which partly explains the stellar pass rate, though the 0.07 failures per vehicle still indicates robust engineering. With advisories averaging just 0.6 per car, you're looking at a model that tends to stay problem-free; focus your pre-purchase inspection on the hybrid system and brake wear (common advisory items on high-spec Audis), then buy with confidence.
What to check before buying a 2022 Audi Q5 Sln Ed1 45tfsi MHEV Quat SA
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.

- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
