2014 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · LF64 LHO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a persistent pattern of front-end wear. The most recent test in January 2026 at 158,106 miles flagged an advisory for a worn offside front suspension arm pin or bush. This follows a recurring issue where both front inner bushes were noted in early 2024. While the vehicle continues to pass tests, the frequency of these advisories indicates that the suspension components are reaching the end of their functional life. The mileage profile reflects consistent, high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 13,000 miles per year over the last decade. Between January 2023 and January 2026, the vehicle covered 13,686 miles, showing a steady rate of accumulation without long stationary periods. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has been used for regular work rather than sitting, though the high total mileage places significant stress on the drivetrain and chassis components, which is consistent with the mechanical wear observed in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension geometry, as the control arm bushes have appeared in three out of the last four tests. The 2025 test also highlighted thin front brake pads, suggesting the braking system is nearing an interval. You should also check the offside power steering hose for signs of the corrosion first noted in 2023, as these components can lead to sudden leaks if not monitored. Given the age and mileage, a physical check of the structural integrity of the underbody is essential to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed around the mounting points.
