2017 Skoda Superb 2.0L Diesel · LU14 HUG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive service history. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 110,168 miles was a pass, it followed a failure just eight days prior at 110,000 miles. The failure for thin nearside rear brake pads and worn discs suggests that the owner only addressed braking components when forced by an MOT failure, rather than performing scheduled preventative maintenance. At 110,168 miles over nine years, this Superb has averaged approximately 12,240 miles per annum. This high mileage profile suggests consistent motorway use which typically accelerates the wear on suspension components and braking systems. The record shows steady mileage accumulation, with roughly 5,400 miles driven between the November 2024 and November 2025 tests. This consistent usage places significant stress on the drivetrain and rubber bushings, making a thorough inspection of these wear-related items essential. A buyer must pay close attention to the engine electronics, as the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) failed tests in both 2024 and 2025. This recurring fault often indicates a persistent sensor issue or a wiring fault that may not have been fully rectified. Furthermore, the history shows a pattern of deteriorating brake components, with front inner discs flagged in 2023 and rear discs flagged in 2025. A physical inspection should verify that the calipers are not binding and that the remaining brake hardware has sufficient life, as the high mileage increases the likelihood of imminent replacement requirements across the entire system.
