2009 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · SM04 SEB

The June 2025 test at 112,366 miles returned a clean pass with no advisories or defects recorded. That result extends a stable trend; the two most recent annual tests, in September 2024 and June 2025, both passed without comment. The MOT expired in late June 2026 so the vehicle currently sits without a valid certificate. Mileage accumulation remains low. The Tiguan covered roughly 2,200 miles between the September 2023 test at 109,227 miles and the September 2024 test at 111,429 miles. Usage then dropped sharply to under 1,000 miles in the nine months leading to the June 2025 test. Such low annual distances often point to periods of storage rather than daily commuting. The history shows two fail-and-pass pairs in quick succession, first in September 2023 and again in August 2024, yet the official record lists no defects for any of those four tests. That absence of detail usually indicates minor rectification items such as lamps, wipers or tyre tread rather than structural or mechanical failure. A buyer should still inspect the brake discs and calipers for binding caused by long standstill periods, check suspension bushes for perishing, and examine the underbody and subframe mounts for corrosion common on this platform.
