2017 Infiniti Q50 2.0L Diesel · SJ67 VUS

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in July 2025, but the report highlights that both front tyres are worn close to the legal limit and both rear anti-roll bar linkage ball joints have developed play. There is a recurring pattern regarding tyre maintenance and emerging suspension wear. Front tyre wear was flagged in 2022 and has reappeared in 2025. While the 2023 and 2024 tests were clean, the most recent entry suggests a worsening trend as mechanical wear in the suspension is now becoming evident. A significant historical risk is the oil leak from the rear axle or differential noted in 2022. While not mentioned in the most recent tests, leaks in this area can be persistent or indicative of seal failure. The mileage of 58,075 miles is typical for a nine-year-old car. This suggests a balanced usage profile, meaning the wear seen in the MOT history is likely due to age and standard use rather than extreme mileage or prolonged periods of standing. A buyer should first inspect the rear differential for any signs of oil leaks and verify the current tread depth and condition of all tyres. It is also essential to check for knocks or rattles from the rear suspension to assess the current state of the anti-roll bar linkages.
