Petrol against the other Audi Tt versions
| Fuel | Pass rate | Tests |
|---|---|---|
| Petrol | 79% | 93,907 |
| Diesel | 80.9% | 19,118 |
| All Audi Tt | 79.3% | 113,032 |
Why the fuel type changes the number
Petrol cars avoid the DPF and emissions failures that catch diesels, and usually fail on the same consumables as any other car.
On the Audi Tt specifically, diesel is the strongest at 80.9%, and this petrol version sits 0.3 points below the 79.3% model average.
What it means if you are buying one
There is little to choose between fuel types on this model, so decide on running costs and mileage rather than MOT record. Check the exact car, decode the VIN and check the mileage before you bid.
Mileage is part of the answer
The average petrol Audi Tt had covered 79,059 miles at test, against 90,923 for the diesel. That is a shade above the middle of the range, still ordinary wear rather than a red flag, but worth checking against the service book for the car's age.
Fuel type and mileage are tangled together: diesels are usually bought by higher-mileage drivers, so some of any gap between fuels is the miles rather than the engine. The per-year figures on the Audi Tt page separate age from fuel if you want to isolate one.
