2019 Volkswagen Tiguan Match TDI 2.0L Diesel · RH10 ANJ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a reactive approach to servicing rather than preventative replacement. The most recent test in September 2025 at 66,307 miles passed with an advisory for a thin nearside rear brake pad. This follows a pattern seen in September 2022 where both front and rear brake pads were flagged as wearing thin. While the vehicle consistently passes its tests, the recurring nature of component wear suggests the owner addresses issues as they approach failure. The mileage progression is consistent with typical annual-use patterns, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per year. Between the 2022 test at 37,418 miles and the 2024 test at 53,200 miles, the vehicle covered 15,782 miles, followed by another 13,107 miles leading into the 2025 inspection. This steady suggests regular road use, which is generally beneficial for keeping seals and mechanical components lubricated versus long periods of standing. A buyer should focus their attention on the braking system during a physical inspection. The 2022 record specifically noted wear on both front and rear brake discs, and the 2024 and 2025 advisories confirm that pads are nearing the end of their functional life. Furthermore, the 2024 test flagged front tyres worn on the edge and slight cracking on the rear sidewalls. These specific indicators point to potential alignment issues or age-related rubber degradation, necessitating a check of the suspension bushes and current tyre wear patterns.
