2013 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · MJ13 HNF

The 2013 Peugeot Partner has a recent MOT history showing mixed results, with the most recent test on 2026-01-06 recording a pass at 140,989 miles. However, a failure occurred just one day earlier at 140,988 miles, indicating potential unresolved issues or a last-minute fix. The failure cited multiple defects, including inoperative stop lamps, a misaligned brake slack adjuster, and a damaged steering rack gaiter. These suggest ongoing concerns with electrical systems and critical safety components like brakes and steering. The pattern of failures over the past three years reveals recurring mechanical and safety risks. A 2023-10-30 failure highlighted worn suspension components (offside front lower suspension arm ball joint) and an insecure exhaust system, while a 2025-01-07 test noted slight play in the nearside front track rod end. These issues, though addressed in subsequent passes, indicate a trend of gradual wear in suspension and steering systems. The 2026 failure adds electrical and brake-related concerns, suggesting the vehicle may be experiencing increasing complexity in maintenance needs. The mileage of 140,989 miles (roughly 10,845 per year) aligns with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle, but does not rule out periods of inactivity or heavy use. The frequency of failures, particularly in 2023 and 2026, implies that the vehicle’s condition may be trending toward worsening, especially in areas like suspension, brakes, and electrical systems.
