2017 Nissan X-Trail 2.0L Diesel · HT66 LPY

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, following a clean pass in its most recent test on December 9, 2025, at 77,052 miles. This result indicates that the significant mechanical and wear issues identified in the previous year have been addressed. While the vehicle showed a sharp decline in condition during late 2024, the current trend is improving as the owner responded to the failures by performing the necessary repairs. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual use for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per year. The data shows regular intervals between tests, with a gap of 10,000 miles recorded between December 2023 and November 2024, and another 7,500 miles covered between November 2024 and December 2025. This steady accumulation suggests the car has been used regularly rather than suffering long periods ofກັບ, which can often lead to premature failure of rubber components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking geometry, as the history reveals a recurring issue with worn suspension arm bushes and anti-roll bar pins. The 2024 failure flagged defects across both front and rear suspension components, along with thin brake pads and tyres, suggesting that maintenance was reactive rather than proactive. While the December 2025 pass was clean, a manual check for play in the front suspension arm bushes is advisable to ensure the previous repairs were thorough. Additionally, the mention of sill covers being fitted in December 2023 warrants a close look at the lower sills to confirm that no structural corrosion is hidden beneath the trim.
