Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the mileage
Focus your enquiry on the Engine MIL (Management Indicator Lamp) failure recorded in March 2026; you should request specific documentation on what the fault was and how it was rectified. Check the front tyre wear carefully, as 'inner tyre wear' often indicates an alignment or suspension issue, which is consistent with the model's aggregate data regarding coil spring failures.
Verify the service history for evidence of timing belt and water pump replacements, as these are critical maintenance items for the 2.4L diesel engine at this age and mileage. Ensure that the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is now fully operational, as it was a point of failure in the most recent test cycle.
The 2.4L diesel engine provides significant towing power and torque but will place the vehicle in a higher tax bracket and insurance group than smaller engine options. Fuel economy will be typical for a heavy SUV, making it most cost-effective for long-distance motorway driving.
Maintenance costs for this model can be higher than average, particularly for braking systems. This is evidenced by the 2025 MOT failure which required the replacement of both rear brake pads and discs. Annual costs will be influenced by the need for premium parts to maintain Volvo's safety standards.
Carefully inspect the front tyres for uneven wear on the inner edges. This was a failure point in March 2026 and remained an advisory in April 2026, suggesting a potential ongoing alignment issue. Check the dashboard for any active warning lights, specifically the Engine MIL and TPMS, both of which caused a failure in early 2026.
Examine the rear brakes to ensure the replacements carried out in April 2025 were performed to a high standard. Additionally, check the windscreen wipers for streaks or gaps in clearing, as both front wipers failed the MOT in March 2026.
This 2015 white Volvo XC60 has covered 99,527 miles, which aligns closely with the model's average annual usage. The MOT history shows two failures in the last two years, including brake wear in 2025 and more complex electronic and tyre issues in 2026. It represents a typical example of the 2.4L diesel variant but requires a detailed check of recent repairs.
The XC60 has a respectable aggregate MOT pass rate of 84.6%, with tyres and coil springs being the most frequent failure points across the model range.
