2018 Honda CR-V 1.6L Diesel · PX68 TXL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a concerning trend of reactive rather than preventative care. The most recent test on June 4 2026 at 51,441 miles passed immediately after a failure one day prior. That failure identified a critical nearside rear brake pad thickness of just 1.1mm, a split brake pedal boot, and a failed high-level brake light. This suggests the owner only addresses mechanical faults when they threaten an MOT certificate, rather than performing routine component replacements. At 51,441 miles over eight years, the CR-V has covered an average of approximately 6,430 miles per year, which is consistent with low-use patterns. The mileage data shows steady intervals, with 6,086 miles driven between July 2024 and June 2025, and another 7,251 miles between June 2025 and June 2026. While the low mileage suggests less wear on the drivetrain, the presence of a DPF warning message at 38,104 miles in July 2024 indicates the vehicle may have been subjected primarily to short trips that prevent soot regeneration in the diesel particulate filter. A buyer must conduct a thorough in-person inspection of the entire braking system, as the nearside rear pads were found at the point of failure. The split pedal boot also indicates potential moisture ingress into the master cylinder or internal linkage. The recurring issue of the nearside front tyre being worn on the edge in 2024 suggests underlying alignment issues or worn suspension bushes, which should be checked for uneven wear on the current set fitment. Additionally, the buyer should verify the condition of the exhaust system and ensure the DPF warning light has cleared and not returned, as the frequent failures for minor items like wipers and washer fluid point to a general lack of basic vehicle upkeep.
