2016 BMW X4 3.0L Diesel · FG66 MFU

The 2016 BMW X4 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 April 2025 at 72,986 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed test on 12 April 2024 at 65,268 miles, reversed three days later on 15 April 2024 with a pass and no defects listed, which suggests an administrative or minor pre-check rejection rather than a substantive mechanical fault. Annual mileage averages around 7,299 miles against a ten-year life, a typical figure for this age of vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 47,750 miles in May 2022, 57,150 in April 2023, 65,268 by April 2024, and 72,986 by April 2025. No rapid jumps or standing gaps appear. The clean sheet across five years of testing indicates the previous keeper kept on top of consumables and avoided letting advisories stack up. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and BMW's known rear trailing arm wear. The MOT data flags no corrosion or structural integrity issues, but DVSA tests do not strip panels. Check underneath for exhaust and subframe rust that a clean ticket might miss. Verify the April 2024 fail reason with the test station, as the blank defect field is unusual. Otherwise, the history implies disciplined upkeep and the X4 needs only standard pre-purchase checks on tyres, wiper blades, and fluid condition.
