2021 Volkswagen Transporter T28 H-Line TDI S-A 2.0L Diesel · SJ71 TYB

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a slight shift toward developing component wear. While the most recent test conducted in October 2025 at 44,876 miles passed, it introduced two new advisories that were not present in the previous year. This indicates that while the vehicle is mechanically sound for now, it is beginning to enter a phase where suspension and rubber components require proactive attention. The mileage pattern is consistent with a light-use commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. Between the October 2024 test at 34,303 miles and the October 2025 test at 44,876 miles, the vehicle covered 10,573 miles. This suggests regular usage rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for the seals and engine components in a diesel engine of this type. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the rear suspension and tyre condition. The advisory for light oil misting on the nearside rear shock absorber suggests an early stage of seal failure, which will eventually require replacement to maintain consistent dampening performance. Additionally, the nearside rear tyre is worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear, which often points to an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. Checking the pressure of the remaining tyres and inspecting the geometry is necessary to ensure no deeper mechanical faults have caused the uneven wear.
