2015 Nissan Navara 2.5L Diesel · ML15 HRP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive repairs reacting to recurring mechanical wear. While the most recent test in March 2025 at 156,298 miles passed, it highlighted an advisory for play in the nearside front inner rack end and a deteriorated exhaust rubber. This follows a progression of steering issues noted in 2023 where both steering rack bushes and inner joints were flagged, suggesting that the steering assembly is reaching the end of its service life. At 156,298 miles over 11 years, this Navara has averaged approximately 14,200 miles per year. This high mileage is consistent with heavy commercial use and explains the accelerated wear on heavy-duty components. Between February 2023 and February 2024, the vehicle covered over 7,000 miles, a period during which it failed due to a weeping clutch slave cylinder and exhaust system corrosion. The frequency of these failures indicates that faults are often only addressed when they reach an MOT threshold rather than through scheduled preventative maintenance. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the steering and front suspension, as the record shows persistent issues with rack joints and bushes. The persistent oil leak noted in both 2023 and 2025 requires close monitoring to ensure it remains a minor seep rather than a developing failure. Given the history of general corrosion on the vehicle underside and corroded exhaust components, the structural integrity of the chassis and mounting points should be checked for advanced through-rust. Additionally, the pitted brake discs and low pads reported in 2023 suggest the braking system may be due for significant overhaul if not recently replaced.
