2014 Infiniti Q50 2.1L Diesel · RX64 TMZ

This vehicle has a current MOT, having passed on 22 May 2026. However, the recent failure just prior to that pass highlights a lack of preventative maintenance, as the car was presented with four worn tyres and a non-functional stop lamp. The primary risk pattern is centered on the braking system and rear suspension. There is a recurring history of worn, pitted, and scored rear discs and thin pads dating back to early 2025. Most concerning is the most recent failure for imbalanced rear brakes, suggesting that previous brake issues may not have been fully resolved or that the system is deteriorating. The overall condition trend is worsening. While earlier advisories for brakes were managed, the latest failure combines braking imbalances with neglected tyre wear, indicating a decline in the standard of upkeep. The mileage of 84,092 miles is typical for a 12-year-old car. However, there is a significant jump from 55,177 miles in June 2025 to 84,092 miles in May 2026. This suggests a period of very high usage over the last year, which likely explains the rapid wear on the tyres and brakes.
