2013 Renault Trafic 2.0L Diesel · DF13 BDV

The most recent MOT on 9 December 2022 passed at 401,698 miles with no defects, indicating the vehicle met the minimum legal standard at that time. The trend shows a single fail on 1 December 2022 followed quickly by a pass, suggesting the issue was resolved or was non‑mechanical, so the overall maintenance trend is stable rather than worsening. Over roughly thirteen years the vehicle has accumulated 401,698 miles, averaging about 30,900 miles per year, which is high for a 2013 Renault Trafic. Between the December 2021 pass at 370,111 miles and the December 2022 fail at 401,538 miles the odometer rose by roughly 31,400 miles in twelve months, indicating consistent heavy use. The eight‑day gap between the fail and the subsequent pass added only 160 miles, showing the vehicle remained in service shortly after the retest. Although no defects were recorded in any test, the high mileage warrants a close look at wear‑prone items such as front and rear suspension bushes, coil springs, shock absorbers, brake discs and pads for thickness and uneven wear, and the steering linkage for play. Check the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks, inspect the chassis and wheel arches for structural rust, and verify the engine oil condition and service history to ensure the drivetrain has been maintained despite the intensive mileage.
