2022 Peugeot Expert Prof Premium L1 B-HDI 1.5L Diesel · PJ72 CFN

A recent failure regarding windscreen wiper effectiveness followed by a clean pass on 28 March 2026 indicates a vehicle that is currently meeting minimum roadworthiness standards but has required recent corrective maintenance to address visibility issues. The recorded history shows a minor setback in March 2026 when the vehicle failed due to a wiper that did not clear the windscreen effectively, alongside an advisory for thinning rear brake pads. Since that failure, the most recent test outcome shows no recorded defects, suggesting the identified issues were addressed prior to the successful retest. The vehicle has covered 42,917 miles over its approximately four-year lifespan, representing an average annual accumulation of roughly 10,729 miles. This mileage profile is consistent with typical commercial or light utility usage for a Peugeot Expert. Mechanically, this level of use suggests that wear on consumable components such as brake pads, tyres, and wiper blades is expected to be at a standard progression rate, rather than being indicative of extreme high-mileage strain or excessive periods of stationary use. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the braking system during a test drive, specifically addressing the advisory for thinning rear brake pads noted in March 2026. While the most recent pass suggests these may have been replaced, it is essential to check for any signs of binding calipers or uneven pad wear. During operation, listen for any rhythmic squealing or grinding noises when applying the brakes, and feel for any pulsation or judder through the brake pedal, which could indicate worn or warped discs. Regarding the recent wiper failure, ensure that the wiper blades provide a clear, streak-free sweep across the entire windscreen area and that the wiper motor operates without hesitation or unusual noise. Given the commercial nature of this vehicle, it is also prudent to inspect the exterior condition of the windscreen for any stone chips or cracks that might have been overlooked, as these can compromise structural integrity. Check that the washer fluid jets are directed accurately and that the spray pattern is sufficient to assist the wipers in maintaining visibility.
