2013 Mercedes-Benz ML 2.1L Diesel · DG11 ADG

The 2026‑07‑10 MOT at 91,218 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets roadworthiness standards and the maintenance trend remains stable. The most recent test showed no flagged issues such as binding calipers, excessive corrosion or failed emissions, contrasting with earlier records that noted tyre wear and transmission oil weep. Over the 13‑year lifespan the mileage has risen from 30,314 miles in 2016 to 91,218 miles today, averaging about 7,000 miles per year, which aligns with the typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The interval from the 2021 test at 62,984 miles to the 2026 test shows an increase of 28,234 miles over five years, a rate consistent with the overall average, and no significant periods of inactivity are evident as each annual test interval spans roughly 12 months. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of wear or binding, examine the brake discs and calipers for scoring or uneven wear, and verify that the tyres have been replaced before the legal limit is breached. Evidence of transmission oil weep in the 2018 and 2017 tests suggests the transmission seals should be checked for leaks, and the chassis and wheel arches ought to be examined for corrosion, especially given the repeated tyre wear which may indicate exposure to road salt. Finally, confirm that the exhaust system is free of cracks and that the emissions test was passed, and request a physical assessment of the drivetrain components to ensure the previously noted oil weep has not progressed into a more serious fault.
