2015 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · PD15 ALE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a transition from reactive repairs to ongoing monitoring. In the most recent test in September 2025 at 63,062 miles, the vehicle passed despite an advisory regarding an oil leak from the rear differential. This represents a slight improvement from the September 2024 period where the car failed on suspension and braking components, suggesting that the immediate mechanical faults were addressed following that failed inspection. The mileage profile is notably low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,733 miles per annum. There is a visible gap in records between September 2022 at 40,706 miles and September 2023 at 50,258 miles, covering nearly 10,000 miles in a single year. While low mileage often reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it can lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals, which is consistent with the fluid issues noted later in the history. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and the braking system. The September 2024 failure highlighted a perished offside front lower suspension arm ball joint dust cover, and the records from 2023 and 2024 showed a pattern of thin brake pads on both axes. These issues suggest that while the vehicle is being serviced when necessary, consumables are reaching the end of their life cycles. Most importantly, the 2025 advisory regarding the rear differential oil leak requires a close-up underbody check to ensure the leak is not escalating or indicating a failing pinion seal.
