2006 Lexus RX400H 3.3L Hybrid electric (clean) · GY06 VYN

The vehicle has passed its most recent MOT test on 27 December 2022, with a total mileage of 168,994 miles. The maintenance history reveals a consistent pattern of wear concerning suspension components, specifically the arm pins and bushes across multiple tests from 2020 to 2022. While these faults were noted repeatedly, they were generally not severe enough to result in a failure, suggesting a stable, albeit ongoing, wear trend in the steering and suspension geometry. The mileage accumulation since the 2020 test remains relatively consistent, averaging approximately 8,450 miles per year. The record shows no significant gaps in service or unexpected rapid mileage spikes. The history demonstrates that the vehicle has been subject to multiple inspections in the same timeframe, with the 2021 test showing extensive wear on all suspension arm pins and bushes, which was subsequently noted as a minor defect in the 2022 test. A buyer should inspect the suspension components thoroughly, paying close attention to the arm pins and bushes on both the nearside and offside, as these have been flagged repeatedly. Furthermore, the brake discs on both the nearside and front have been recorded as worn or pitted. The history also includes notes regarding tyre condition, specifically a cut on the offside front tyre during the 2022 inspection, which should be checked for depth and structural integrity. The overall record indicates that while the vehicle is currently roadworthy, the recurring wear on suspension bushes suggests that routine maintenance on these specific parts is required to prevent future defects. The inspection should focus on confirming the condition of the steering and suspension linkages and verifying the wear on the brake discs.
