2017 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · ND17 XMP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward reactive component replacement. The most recent test in May 2026 at 92,058 miles flagged multiple advisories regarding the front and rear brake discs and both front tyres. While the vehicle passed the test, the presence of pitted and scored discs on both axles alongside worn tyres suggests that the current owner is only addressing faults once they approach failure limits rather than following a preventative maintenance schedule. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,200 miles per annum. There is a notable gap of over 6,000 miles between January 2023 and June 2023, followed by a 7,800-mile interval between May 2024 and May 2025. This steady accumulation suggests regular road use which is generally healthier for engine seals and components than long periods of standing, though the high mileage-figure figures now places standard wear on the drivetrain and suspension assembly. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the braking system and front suspension. The recurring mention of worn front tyres in 2023 and 2026, specifically noted as being worn on the edge, indicates potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that require investigation. Given the 2026 advisory on pitted brake discs, the thickness of the pads should be checked to ensure the calipers are not seizing. Additionally, the condition of the undertray and engine cover mentioned in 2025 should be verified to ensure they are securely fastened and free of impact damage that could hide corrosion on lower mechanical components.
