2022 MAN TGE 3.140 2.0L Diesel · OY22 ABU

High annual mileage and a recent failure regarding visibility components define the mechanical profile of this vehicle. While the most recent test on 11 May 2026 resulted in a pass, it was preceded by a failure due to a windscreen wiper that failed to clear the windscreen effectively. This indicates that while the vehicle is currently compliant, components related to driver visibility were insufficient at the time of testing. The overall trend across the recorded history is relatively sparse, with the 2025 advisory concerning a deteriorated front registration plate being the only other noted item prior to the 2026 wiper failure. The vehicle has covered 85,721 miles in approximately four years, which equates to an average annual accumulation of roughly 21,430 miles. This represents a high-usage profile for a 2022 model, suggesting frequent long-distance or heavy-duty operation rather than short, urban trips. Mechanically, this level of mileage increases the likelihood of accelerated wear on consumable items such as brake pads, discs, and suspension bushes, as well as more frequent service requirements for the drivetrain and exhaust systems. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the condition of the wiper system and the overall state of the windscreen to ensure no further issues with visibility arise. Given the high mileage, a thorough inspection of the suspension system is necessary. During a test drive, listen for any knocking or clunking sounds when traversing uneven surfaces, which could indicate worn shock absorbers or deteriorated suspension linkages. Additionally, check for any steering pull or vibrations through the steering wheel that might suggest uneven tyre wear or issues with the steering geometry. The high mileage also necessitates a close examination of the braking system and the underside of the vehicle. Monitor the brake pedal for any excessive travel or judder under braking, which can be an indicator of worn or warped discs. It is also advisable to inspect the vehicle for any signs of fluid leaks from the engine or transmission, as high-mileage commercial vehicles often show signs of oil misting or weeping from seals. Checking the condition of the tyres for uneven wear patterns will also provide insight into the vehicle's alignment and suspension health.
