2019 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · BA68 KNE

The most recent MOT test in January 2026 resulted in a pass, but it highlighted that both rear brake discs are worn, pitted, or scored. There was also noted damage to the outer sidewall of the offside rear tyre. The mechanical trend for this vehicle is worsening. While the history was clean in 2022 and 2023, defects have appeared in every test since 2024. These have included an EGR pipe exhaust leak, a defective central exhaust mounting, and corroded rear coil springs. The vehicle has covered 102,708 miles in approximately seven years, which is high for its age. This level of use suggests significantly more wear on the drivetrain, suspension, and general consumables than would be expected on a lower-mileage example. The combination of high mileage and the recent appearance of corrosion on the rear springs and wear on the brakes suggests the vehicle is entering a phase where more frequent maintenance and component replacements will be required. The most important checks for a buyer are to inspect the condition of the rear brake discs, check the rear coil springs for further corrosion, examine the exhaust system for leaks or loose mountings, and carefully check all tyre sidewalls for damage.
