2018 Nissan Navara 2.3L Diesel · SL68 LXF

The most recent MOT on 2025-10-13 shows a failure due to the Engine MIL (Malfunction Indicator Light) being inoperative or indicating a malfunction. This is a critical safety and emissions-related defect, as the MIL is designed to alert drivers to engine issues that could affect performance or compliance. The same date also lists a pass for the same mileage, which may indicate conflicting records or a procedural error, but the failure note remains the most concerning. Previous MOTs reveal a pattern of minor but recurring issues. In 2023, the vehicle had worn anti-roll bar bushes, a slightly defective headlamp lens, and bumper damage—none of which were safety-critical but suggested ongoing wear. The 2022 MOT highlighted corroded brake pipes and a non-functional stop lamp, both of which are safety risks. These issues were resolved in later tests, but the 2025 failure indicates a potential regression in the vehicle’s systems. The condition trend appears stable overall , with no major new defects since 2023. However, the 2025 failure introduces a significant concern: the Engine MIL issue. This could signal underlying engine problems, such as faulty sensors or unresolved malfunctions, which may require immediate attention.
