2015 Mazda CX-5 2.2L Diesel · DG65 XRE

The 2015 Mazda CX-5 presents a stable and broadly improving maintenance trend, culminating in a pass at its most recent MOT on 11 November 2025 at 106,481 miles. That test recorded only a single advisory for a worn nearside front tyre, a minor consumable issue. This follows two consecutive clean passes in September 2023 and October 2024, indicating the vehicle has been kept in good mechanical order with no recurring serious defects. The mileage accumulation is consistent and unremarkable for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The record shows a steady progression from 63,808 miles in September 2021 to 106,481 miles in November 2025, averaging roughly 9,700 miles per year. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden jumps in the odometer readings, suggesting regular use rather than prolonged standing. The annual test intervals align with this pattern, and the record is complete with no missing years. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and steering components. The history shows repeated advisories for uneven tyre wear, specifically inner edge wear on the nearside front in 2022 and 2025, and a similar offside front advisory in 2021. This pattern points to potential wear in front suspension bushes, tracking misalignment, or degraded dampers. Have the front subframe, lower arms, and anti-roll bar links checked for play. The offside rear tyre advisory for cracking and perishing in 2022 also warrants a close look at all four tyres, including the spare, for age-related deterioration, particularly if the sidewalls show signs of dry rot despite adequate tread depth. Brake and exhaust condition should be verified against the current mileage. With over 106,000 miles, expect the brake discs and pads to be near replacement thickness, and inspect the exhaust system for corrosion, especially around joints and the rear box. While no structural corrosion has been flagged, a thorough underside inspection is prudent to confirm the integrity of the chassis, sills, and suspension mounting points on a vehicle of this age and mileage.
