2014 Nissan X-Trail 1.6L Diesel · MY55 JAZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive repairs rather than preventative upkeep. The most recent test in October 2025 at 111,412 miles passed, yet it highlighted advisories for both front tyres reaching the legal limit and showing edge wear. This mirrors a pattern seen in 2023 at 92,026 miles, suggesting that the owner consistently delays tyre replacement until they reach the minimum threshold. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,284 miles per year. There is a notable progression of roughly 8,000 miles between October 2023 and November 2024, and another 17,000 miles between November 2024 and October 2025. While the regular usage suggests typical operation, the high age of the vehicle puts significant stress on rubber components and way bushings which are not always captured by mileage figures alone. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the steering and front suspension geometry. The 2024 test at 104,247 miles flagged play in the steering rack inner joints, which followed a failure in 2022 for an heavily worn offside front suspension arm ball joint and a faulty nearside wheel bearing. These recurring issues indicate the front-end components are prone to accelerated wear. The buyer should verify that the steering artwork issue was professionally rectified and check for any remaining play or knocks during a test drive, as the recurring edge wear on the tyres also suggests potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes.
