2014 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · DP14 LGO

The most recent MOT on 2026-01-19 showed the vehicle passed, but with multiple issues: front and rear brake discs were worn, pitted or scored, and both front tyres were worn close to the legal limit. This suggests that while the car was still roadworthy, it had significant wear on critical safety components. A failed MOT on the same date revealed more serious issues: the front suspension arm ball joint was excessively worn, and the offside front track rod end had excessive play. These are signs of potential handling and steering problems, which could compromise safety. The engine MIL was also malfunctioning, indicating possible underlying engine issues. Looking back, the 2025-01-16 MOT failed due to an oil leak, exhaust leaks affecting emissions, and a faulty parking brake. The 2024-01-15 MOT passed but noted corroded exhaust joints and worn front tyres, with difficulty seeing the rear brake pads. The recurring pattern shows a trend of worsening mechanical issues, particularly in the braking system, suspension, and exhaust. The engine has also shown intermittent faults, with the MIL inoperative in two separate MOTs. This suggests that the vehicle is experiencing progressive wear and potential systemic issues that may require more extensive repairs.
