2016 Volvo XC60 2.4L Diesel · D2 WJL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than proactive servicing. While the most recent test in March 2026 at 58,702 miles passed, the tester flagged thin inner brake pads and worn rear brake discs. This follows a recurring advisory from February 2025 where the discs were already noted as worn. This pattern suggests that the rear braking system is only being addressed once components approach failure limits rather than during scheduled intervals. At 58,702 miles, this XC60 has covered significantly less distance than the average vehicle, averaging roughly 5,870 miles annually. The data shows a notable increase in usage between February 2024 and February 2025, where the vehicle covered nearly 8,000 miles in a single year. Low mileage often reduces wear on the drivetrain but can lead to the degradation of rubber components and dry seals, which is evidenced by the fractured nearside rear coil spring found during the 2025 test. A buyer must personally inspect the rear suspension closely, way the fact that a broken coil spring caused a previous failure at 48,031 miles. Given the age of the vehicle and the low mileage, the suspension bushings should be checked for cracking or per due to age. The braking system requires a thorough evaluation, as the history indicates a consistent trend of thinning pads and worn discs that may be nearing the end of their life and require immediate replacement to ensure consistent stopping performance.
