2021 Peugeot Partner 1.5L Diesel · SH21 KBN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history shows a worsening trend regarding brake component wear. The most recent test on 1 June 2026 at 37,656 miles saw the tester flagging front brake pads as wearing thin. This follows issues identified during the June 2025 test at 28,100 miles, where both the offside front pads and the front and rear discs were noted as worn. The mileage profile remains consistent with typical light-use patterns, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year over the five-year period. The vehicle recorded a clean test in June 2024 at 20,540 miles, indicating a period of good mechanical health. However, the accumulation of 9,556 miles between the 2025 and 2026 tests coincides with the appearance of recurring braking defects, suggesting that components are reaching the end of their service life despite the low overall mileage. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system before purchase. Given the recurring reports of thin pads and worn discs across two consecutive years, it is highly likely that the front braking assembly requires immediate complete replacement to meet safety standards. The inspector should also check for sticking calipers or uneven wear to ensure the thin pads are not causing accelerated disc degradation. No structural corrosion or suspension faults were recorded, so the chassis and drivetrain components remain the primary focus for this vehicle.
