2016 Hyundai I40 1.7L Diesel · EJ16 YTS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward deferred preventative maintenance following several clean inspections. In the most recent test in October 2025 at 103,758 miles, the car presented several advisories including a low brake hydraulic reservoir, worn front brake pads with approximately 40% life remaining, and a nearside front tyre nearing the legal limit. These issues indicate a departure from the pristine condition seen in previous years, suggesting that Routine wear and tear components now require immediate attention. The mileage profile is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 10,400 miles per annum. There is a steady accumulation of mileage recorded, moving from 75,313 miles in 2021 to over 103,000 miles by 2025. There are no significant gaps in testing or unusual spikes in usage that suggest the vehicle has sat stationary for long periods, though the crossing of the 100,000-mile threshold naturally places higher stress on the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and braking system. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system and tyre condition. The history shows recurring issues with tyre quality, specifically perishing and cracking on sidewalls noted in 2023 and 2024, alongside uneven wear patterns on the shoulders which may indicate an alignment issue or suspension geometry fault. Furthermore, the recent report of low fluid levels and corroded inner disc faces necessitates a check for leaks in the system and an evaluation that the discs are not thinned beyond safety limits.
