2009 BMW X5 3.0L Diesel · LT09 DHG

The vehicle presents a mixed maintenance record. The most recent MOT test on 2025-10-06 resulted in a clean PASS at 82,825 miles, suggesting the previous failures were rectified. However, the recurring issue of failed anti-roll bar dust covers indicates a persistent vulnerability to contamination, which could lead to premature joint wear and eventual failure. The low annual mileage of approximately 4,872 miles per year implies the car has seen minimal mechanical stress, but also suggests it may have spent considerable time stationary, increasing the risk of corrosion and component seizing. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension system, focusing on the anti-roll bar linkages and associated bushes, as well as checking for any signs of rust or stiffness in the brake calipers. Additionally, the windscreen washer failure in 2023 highlights basic fluid system neglect, which should be verified as functional before purchase.
