2015 Volkswagen Caddy 1.6L Diesel · RJ64 VVM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive ownership. While the most recent test in May 2026 at 67,476 miles passed, it introduced new concerns regarding a TPMS fault and structural damage to the central front subframe mounting. The trend shows a significant mechanical decline in April 2025, where the vehicle failed due to extensive brake issues and electronic faults, suggesting that components are only addressed after failing an annual test. At 67,476 miles over 11 years, the Caddy has averaged approximately 6,100 miles per year, which is consistent with light-use patterns for this age. However, the mileage gap between the November 2023 (57,652 miles) and April 2025 (65,587 miles) shows an increase of nearly 8,000 miles in seventeen months. This burst of activity correlates with the accelerated wear observed on the brake pads, discs, and tyres recorded during that failure period. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the central front subframe mounting area flagged in the 2026 test. Although the tester did not consider the damage excessive, structural corrosion or impact damage on mounting points requires monitoring to prevent future safety failures. You should also verify that the ABS and electronic stability systems, which failed in 2025, have been fully rectified and are not currently throwing warning lights on the dashboard. The recurring issues with pitted brake discs and thin pads across both 2023 and 2025 indicate a history of neglected consumable maintenance. Inspect the current braking system for binding calipers or uneven wear, as the offside rear was previously noted for lagging. Additionally, check the functionality of the TPMS sensor and the offside mirror, as both remain as points of concern in the most recent record.
