2013 Mazda 6 2.2L Diesel · LR63 EBZ

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in July 2025, but this followed a failure just eleven days prior due to excessive play in the offside track rod end ball joint and a broken nearside rear under shield. There is a recurring pattern of wear within the steering and suspension components. The 2024 MOT history shows a failure for an excessively worn offside front suspension arm ball joint, followed by the track rod end failure in 2025. This indicates that the front-end mechanical components are showing signs of age-related degradation. The trend appears to be worsening, as different components in the steering and suspension system are failing in consecutive years. The mileage of 107,344 is typical for a vehicle of this age, representing roughly 8,257 miles per year. This level of usage is consistent with standard wear on consumables and suspension parts rather than indicating extreme heavy use or long periods of standing. A buyer should prioritize a thorough inspection of the front suspension and steering components to check for play in the ball joints. You should also inspect the wheels for any signs of distortion, as a distorted inner rim was recorded in the 2023 history.
