2015 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Diesel · AX15 AAF

The February 2026 MOT at 102,833 miles passed, confirming roadworthiness, but the tester recorded severely deteriorated front suspension arm ball joint dust covers and damaged track rod end dust covers, indicating ongoing suspension wear. Mileage has risen from 87,146 miles in March 2023 to 102,833 miles in February 2026, an increase of 15,687 miles over three years, averaging about 5,200 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for an 11‑year‑old vehicle and shows no large gaps in the record. A buyer should examine the front suspension ball joints and track rod ends for play, verify that the dust covers are intact and not severely cracked, inspect the brake discs and calipers for binding or excessive wear, and check tyre condition for uneven tread wear or sidewall perishing, especially on the off‑side rear tyre noted in earlier tests. The repeated suspension advisories suggest that previous owners have not replaced worn components promptly, and the lack of major structural or emission failures does not guarantee long‑term reliability; immediate attention to the highlighted faults is advisable before purchase.
