2010 Nissan Pathfinder 2.5L Diesel · CU56 ORN

The 2010 Nissan Pathfinder presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 15 May 2025 at 120,429 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from May 2022 to May 2024 also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failure on 26 April 2022 at 109,495 miles, which the record lists with no defects recorded, suggesting an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault-driven failure. Mileage sits at a typical level for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,500 miles per year. The odometer moved from 109,559 miles in May 2022 to 113,335 miles by May 2024, then to 120,429 miles by May 2025, showing steady annual use of around 3,500 to 7,000 miles. A curious detail is the near-identical readings of 109,495, 109,559, and 109,563 across April and May 2022, where the car was tested, failed, retested, and passed within weeks at almost the same mileage. The history is sparse and clean outside that cluster, with no advisories logged on any pass. Given the absence of recorded advisories across five years of testing, the previous keeper appears to have maintained the vehicle to a basic pass standard without deferred consumable neglect showing in the official data. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural corrosion on chassis rails and subframes, as the Pathfinder of this era is prone to underbody rust that MOT testers may not flag until perforation occurs. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear should be physically checked despite no advisories being raised. The clean record provides no evidence of recurring mechanical faults, but the 2022 failure with no defects recorded warrants confirmation that it was not a concealed brake or emission issue later cleared without notation.
