2011 Nissan Navara Tekna D/C DCI 188 2.5L Heavy oil · SB11 KSN

A consistent record of roadworthiness has been established over the last several years, culminating in a clean pass on 6 January 2026 with no defects recorded. This follows a long-term trend of stability, as the vehicle has passed its last five tests without a single advisory or failure, marking a significant shift from its earlier testing history. The recorded mileage of 190,194 miles is high for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 12,680 miles per year. Such high accumulation typically results in accelerated wear on consumables, suspension components, and the drivetrain. This usage profile suggests the vehicle has been subjected to sustained operational stress, which increases the likelihood of fatigue in the chassis and wear within the engine and transmission. Inspection should focus on the steering and drivetrain components that were flagged in 2017, specifically the track rod ends and constant velocity joint gaiters. On a test drive, listen for rhythmic clicking or popping sounds during low-speed maneuvers and tight turns, which often indicates a failed CV joint. Any excessive play or looseness in the steering wheel should be noted as a potential sign of worn steering linkages. Previous failures regarding the airbag warning light and limited parking brake reserve travel require verification. The buyer must ensure the airbag warning lamp functions correctly and does not remain lit, as this indicates a fault in the safety restraint system. The parking brake should be checked for effectiveness on a gradient to ensure there is sufficient travel and holding power, as high-mileage utility vehicles are prone to worn brake shoes or binding calipers.
