2016 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · AX10 AEX

The vehicle presents a consistent record of roadworthiness with a trend toward a completely clean bill of health, as evidenced by the most recent pass on 13 April 2026. While earlier tests showed minor issues with emissions and suspension, the two most recent inspections have been clear of any defects or advisories, suggesting that previous concerns have been resolved or have not progressed to a failure point. A total of 18,816 miles over approximately ten years indicates an exceptionally low annual average of roughly 1,882 miles. This usage pattern suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary or has been used for very short journeys. Mechanically, such low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine internals but increases the likelihood of degradation in rubber components and seals due to a lack of regular lubrication and movement. Attention should be paid to the offside front lower suspension arm, which was flagged in July 2024 for a worn and unbonding bush. Although not noted in the 2025 or 2026 tests, the buyer should listen for knocking or clunking sounds when driving over speed bumps or during low-speed steering manoeuvres. Additionally, the emissions advisories regarding the FAS not being detected in 2022 and 2023 warrant a check of the exhaust system for any signs of leaks or unusual idling characteristics. During a test drive, the steering should be monitored for any pull or instability that could indicate the previously noted suspension wear. Given the low mileage and the history of emissions advisories, the engine should be brought up to full operating temperature to ensure the exhaust system performs consistently. A physical inspection of the suspension bushings for visible cracking or separation is recommended to confirm the current status of the component flagged in 2024.
