Default Inspecting a used 2014 A7

I'm going to be looking at a used 2014 A7 Prestige with ~30,000 miles - all the fun stuff (drivers assist, innovation).

Are there particular things I should be paying attention to? Anything that frequently breaks or needs special attention before I make the purchase?

CPO? Service history? Warranty claims to date?

It's not certified used but it does come with the balance of the factory warranty. I don't believe it has had any claims but I will ask again.

Worth noting, it's not from an Audi dealer, it's a private dealer that specializes in premium vehicles

Get the VIN and have a local dealer run the service history. They will also be able to tell you if there are any open service campaigns.

+1. Also check for warped rotors (seems to be common issue with past few MY).
