2015 Lexus NX 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · DG15 NNE

A history of recurring suspension and tyre advisories defines the mechanical profile of this vehicle, although the most recent test on 18 March 2026 shows no recorded defects. The record indicates a period between 2021 and 2023 where multiple components required attention, specifically regarding suspension arm bushes and tyre perishing. While the absence of advisories in the 2024, 2025, and 2026 tests suggests these issues were addressed, the previous pattern of widespread wear across both front and rear suspension bushings warrants careful inspection. The vehicle has covered 60,999 miles over its eleven-year lifespan, representing an average annual accumulation of approximately 5,545 miles. This is a low mileage profile for a 2015 model. While lower mileage generally implies less wear on drivetrain components, such usage patterns can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components due to age rather than distance. This is reflected in the MOT history, where advisories for perishing tyres and worn suspension arm pins or bushes appeared despite the relatively low distance travelled. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the suspension system during a test drive to ensure the previously noted bushing wear has been fully rectified. Listen for any knocking, clunking, or creaking sounds when traversing uneven surfaces or speed bumps, as these are common symptoms of failing suspension arm bushes or pins. Additionally, check for any steering pull or instability at higher speeds, which could indicate that the suspension geometry is no longer within specification due to worn linkages. The brake system history also shows advisories for pitted, scored, or corroded rear brake discs between 2021 and 2022. During a road test, it is essential to monitor for any pedal judder or vibrations when applying the brakes, particularly at the rear, which could indicate uneven disc wear or sticking calipers. Furthermore, given the advisories regarding tyre cracking and perishing, the current condition and age of all four tyres should be visually inspected for sidewall cracking or signs of age-related degradation, regardless of the remaining tread depth.
