2010 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · DV60 VRJ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward neglect of consumable components and minor electrical faults. The most recent test in October 2025 at 122,267 miles resulted in a pass, yet it was marred by significant advisories regarding the rear tyres. Both nearside and offside rear tyres showed wear to the legal limit alongside visible cracking on the sidewalls and edges, indicating that the previous owner has deferred basic rubber replacement until the inspection deadline. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per year. There is a notable gap in data between the April 2019 test at 88,408 miles and the November 2021 test at 115,560 miles, during which the car covered over 27,000 miles. Since then, the usage has slowed down significantly, with only 725 miles recorded between December 2024 and October 2025. This lower annual often contributes to the age-related degradation of rubber parts. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and underbody, as the 2019 record explicitly noted that under trays and engine covers prevented a full inspection of the sills and structural areas. This creates a risk of hidden corrosion which is common in Honda CR-Vs of this era. The minor exhaust leak identified in 2020 should be re-checked to ensure the manifold or piping has not worsened. Furthermore, the insecure battery mount flagged in 2024 requires attention to ensure the terminals are properly secured to prevent vibration-related damage to the electrical system.
