2017 BMW 335 3.0L Diesel · FP67 TSZ

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend indicates a shift toward reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in November 2025 at 97,139 miles resulted in a pass with only a minor nail in the nearside rear tyre. This follows a more problematic period in late 2023 where the car failed due to multiple safety deplets. While the immediate faults have been rectified, the history suggests that components are often only addressed once they reach a point of failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,800 miles per year. There is a steady accumulation of roughly 11,500 miles between November 2022 and November 2023, and another 12,500 miles between the October 2024 and November 2025 tests. This regular usage suggests the car has not sat for long periods, which generally prevents the degradation of rubber components and seals, though it also explains the consistent wear seen on the tyres. A buyer should closely inspect the front suspension and wheel alignment due to recurring issues. The November 2023 failure highlighted a fractured nearside front inner road wheel and misting nearside front upper shock absorbers. Furthermore, the repeated reports of uneven tyre wear across multiple axles in 2023 and 2024 suggest persistent alignment issues or worn control arm bushes that have not been fully resolved. A physical check of the shock absorbers for further leaks and a professional inspection of the wheel integrity are essential to ensure no further structural damage remains.
