2014 Mitsubishi ASX 1.8L Diesel · SV64 PXE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a period of significant mechanical decline recently addressed. While the most recent test in February 2026 at 110,839 miles passed with only age-related rust noted, previous records indicate a history of reactive maintenance. The transition from a clean test in mid-2022 to multiple failures in 2023 suggests that several components were only serviced upon reaching failure thresholds. At 110,839 miles over 12 years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 9,237 miles per year. This is consistent with typical usage for an age of this age, suggesting consistent driving patterns. There is a gap of roughly 13,000 miles between July 2022 and July 2023, during which time the vehicle developed multiple critical defects related to the braking system and suspension. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the structural integrity, specifically the front and rear sub-frames. Although the 2023 test at 97,885 miles flagged both sub-frames as corroded but not seriously weakened, and the 2026 test noted age-related rust, the progression of corrosion should be monitored to ensure it does not become structural. The history of leaking brake pipes in both 2022 and 2023 necessitates a close check of the hydraulic lines for further weeping or degradation. The suspension should also be scrutinized for wear, as previous failures identified excessive play in track rod ends and anti-roll bar linkages. Additionally, the non-excessive oil leak noted in 2023 should be verified to ensure it has not worsened, and the exhaust system, which was previously flagged for corrosion and leaks, should be inspected for any signs of ongoing deterioration.
