2018 Infiniti QX30 2.1L Diesel · RK67 UJB

The 2018 Infiniti QX30 has a recent MOT failure on 2026-05-26, recorded at 80,542 miles, which is its current mileage. The failure relates to a split or insecure nearside front outer drive shaft joint constant velocity boot, which compromises protection against dirt ingress. This is a critical safety issue affecting the drivetrain, as a damaged CV boot can lead to premature joint failure and potential loss of drive power. No other defects were recorded in the same MOT, but the vehicle also passed the same test, indicating the failure was isolated to this component. The MOT history shows a pattern of recurring minor issues, particularly with mirrors and tyres. In 2025-05-29, both front tyres were worn close to the legal limit, with uneven wear on inner and outer edges, suggesting possible alignment or suspension problems. A loose nearside door mirror was also noted. In 2024-05-15, a failed MOT included non-functional offside headlamps, ineffective windscreen wipers, and a loose nearside mirror. These issues were addressed by 2025, as the subsequent MOT passed, but the 2026 failure highlights a new, more serious defect. The trend indicates some improvement in addressing minor issues, but the 2026 failure suggests a new, significant risk.
