Buying Tips for 2016 Hyundai ix35

  • Many ix35s do short local trips, so diesel DPF health is more important than the odometer figure alone
  • Check the steering for the familiar coupling knock and look for any history of column or coupling repair
  • On AWD cars, listen for transfer-box or rear-diff noises on full-lock manoeuvres and tight turns
  • Inspect rear suspension arms, brake pipes and tyres because heavy SUV use shows up quickly in UK MOT histories
