2015 BMW X4 3.0L Diesel · R23 WFY

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, evidenced by the successful MOT test on 10 April 2026 at 92,596 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the recurring pattern of immediate failures followed by passes is a notable observation. In both 2025 and 2026, the vehicle failed the initial test only to pass two days later upon re-test. This suggests the previous owner addresses specific mechanical faults only when compelled to do so by the DVSA tester, rather than following a proactive preventative maintenance schedule. The mileage profile is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,400 miles per year. Between April 2024 and April 2025, the car covered 5,070 miles, followed by only 2,808 miles in the year leading up to the April 2026 test. This slight decline in annual mileage suggests lower use recently, which can sometimes lead to minor rubber components or seals degrading over long periods. The lack of advisories across the last three years indicates that components like suspension bushes and brake linings were within acceptable limits at the time of each inspection. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on the areas that triggered the recent failures, as these occurred immediately before the passes. While the record does not specify the defects for those failures, such rapid fixes often involve minor items such as bulb replacements, tyre tread depth, or exhaust emissions adjustments. Given the age and mileage of this X4, a close look at the control arm bushings and the condition of the shock absorbers is necessary to ensure no hidden wear is developing. Checking for any signs of corrosion on the chassis is also prudent, although the MOT history shows no structural integrity issues to date.
