2010 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · SN10 BOJ

The 2010 Ford Transit has a recent MOT pass on 2025-07-10 at 41,326 miles, but the history reveals recurring issues with suspension components, brake discs, and corrosion. The most recent pass included warnings about offside rear brake disc wear, thin rear brake pads, and worn suspension bushes, all of which were also noted in earlier MOTs. These issues suggest a persistent pattern of gradual component degradation rather than sudden failure. The vehicle’s low mileage of 41,326 over 16 years equates to roughly 2,583 miles annually, which is significantly below average. This could indicate infrequent use or long periods of inactivity, potentially leading to corrosion and component stiffness. However, the absence of major mechanical failures in the MOT history implies the vehicle has not been subjected to heavy wear from high-mileage use. Recurring defects include suspension bush wear (particularly on front lower arms and anti-roll bars), brake disc pitting, and corrosion on outer sills and leaf springs. These issues have remained consistent across multiple MOTs, with no clear evidence of worsening over time. The 2025 pass addressed some of the same faults listed in the 2024 and 2023 MOTs, suggesting repairs or maintenance were performed but not fully resolved. The mileage context complicates assessments of wear.
