Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and budget for imme
When negotiating, use the May 2026 MOT failure as a primary lever. The vehicle failed on multiple tyres, brake discs, and a door issue, meaning significant immediate expenditure will be required to bring it up to standard. Ensure you confirm that the 'oil leak, but not excessive' noted in the 2026 test has been investigated and not merely ignored.
Request a full service history to see if the brake wear noted in 2025 and 2026 was anticipated in scheduled maintenance. Given the large 2993cc engine, check that previous oil changes were performed at the correct intervals, especially in light of the recorded oil leak. You should also verify if the passenger door issue (inability to open from inside) was a mechanical failure or an electrical fault.
As a 3.0-litre diesel, this Infiniti FX will fall into a higher tax band and insurance group compared to standard family SUVs. Fuel economy will be heavily dependent on driving style, but buyers should expect higher-than-average diesel consumption given the vehicle's weight and engine size.
Maintenance costs for this model can be significant due to the premium nature of Infiniti parts. With the recent MOT showing issues with brakes and tyres, expect higher-than-average servicing costs for consumables. An estimated annual running cost for this vehicle is approximately £2,200-£2,800, covering fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance.
A thorough inspection of the braking system is essential, specifically looking at the front brake discs which were recorded as pitted or scored in May 2026. Check the condition of all four tyres, as the most recent MOT highlighted all four were worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edges.
Pay close attention to the passenger-side door; the 2026 failure noted it could not be opened from the inside, so test all door latches and internal handles. Finally, inspect the engine bay for signs of the 'not excessive' oil leak mentioned in the latest MOT to determine if it is a simple gasket issue or something more substantial.
This 2012 Infiniti FX 3.0d is a large diesel SUV with 74,421 miles on the clock. The MOT history shows a transition from a clean record in 2024 to a failure in May 2026 involving tyres, brakes, and a door mechanism. While the mileage is moderate for its age, the recent list of advisories and failures suggests a period of deferred maintenance.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Infiniti FX model to provide a comparative benchmark.
