2019 MAN TGE 3.140 Auto 2.0L Diesel · DC19 YUX

The vehicle remains currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward developing fluid-related issues. While the most recent test in October 2025 at 108,180 miles passed, it noted a non-excessive oil leak. This follows a similar finding in November 2024 at 94,738 miles, suggesting a persistent but slow leak that has not yet reached the threshold of an MOT failure but indicates ongoing wear-and-tear on engine seals or gaskets. The mileage pattern reflects heavy commercial use for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging over 15,000 miles annually. There is a significant surge in usage between November 2023 and November 2024, where the vehicle covered approximately 20,000 miles in a single year. This rapid accumulation contrasts with the early years of service, where the vehicle covered only 2,000 miles in its first year in 2020. Such high-frequency operation typically places accelerated stress on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking components compared to lower-mileage examples. A buyer must inspect the engine bay to identify the source of the recurring oil leak, specifically checking the camshaft area mentioned in the January 2022 record. The December 2022 advisory regarding front inner tyres worn to the edge on both sides suggests a history of alignment issues or worn suspension bushes and control arm ball joints, which should be re-evaluated to prevent premature tyre replacement moving forward. Given the high mileage, a thorough check of the suspension integrity, shock absorbers, and brake disc thickness is necessary to ensure these components are not nearing the end of their operational life.
