2007 Nissan Navara 2.5L Diesel · FD07 CRX

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, showing a stable maintenance trend following a period of concern. In the most recent test in May 2025 at 177,617 miles, the Nissan passed with no defects recorded. This represents a significant improvement over the July 2021 failure, indicating that the previously identified issues with headlamp alignment and brake pipe corrosion were addressed and rectified by the prior owner. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 9,350 miles per year over its nineteen-year life. Between August 2022 and August 2023, the truck covered 9,723 miles, while it saw another 3,661 miles between the August 2023 and May 2025 tests. This relatively steady usage suggests the vehicle is used regularly for tasks rather than being left stationary for long periods, which generally helps to keep rubber seals and mechanical components lubricated on vehicles of this age. A physical inspection should focus on the rear brake system, as the 2021 failure highlighted excessive corrosion on both the nearside and offside brake pipes. While the vehicle passed subsequent tests, the tester should verify that these pipes are no longer showing signs of further degradation or thinning near the cylinders. The slight oil leak noted in 2021 also warrants a close visual check to ensure it remains a minor seepage and has not developed into a significant leak that affects drivetrain components. Given the high mileage and age of the Navara, a thorough check of the structural integrity and suspension bushes is essential. Corrosion is a common factor for this model, and the previous history of corroded brake lines suggests the environment may have been harsh on salt. The buyer should look for signs of rust on the chassis mounting points and exhaust system to ensure the frame remains sound despite the high mileage.
