2013 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · AF63 ODN

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a worsening condition regarding the braking system and hardware. In the most recent test conducted in July 2025 at 122,775 miles, the vehicle passed despite both front brake discs being pitted and scored, alongside an offside front enough pipe identified as corroded. This follows a pattern established in the July 2024 test at 115,806 miles where the front discs were already noted for pitting, suggesting that these components have not been replaced. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age ofion years, averaging approximately 9,444 miles per year. There is a steady progression of use recorded between the tests, moving from 97,997 miles in 2021 to 122,775 miles in 2025. This regular usage shows no significant gaps in mileage, indicating the vehicle has been utilized consistently rather than sitting for long periods, which explains the wear observed on consumable items like tyres and suspension components during the mid-life stage. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system, specifically addressing the ongoing issues with front discs and the corrosion on the brake pipes. The recurring mention of pitted discs across the last two years suggests a lack of preventative replacement of hardware. Furthermore, the history from 2021 and 2022 highlights previous issues with suspension integrity, including deteriorated ball joint dust covers and worn suspension arm bushes. An inspector should check for new signs of play in the front suspension or leaking rubber boots to ensure these earlier faults were properly rectified and have not returned.
