2015 Nissan Navara Tekna DCI Auto 2.5L Heavy oil · VFZ 6008

The most recent MOT on 2026‑01‑09 recorded a pass at 120,055 miles with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness. However, the preceding test on 2025‑12‑30 failed at 119,917 miles, and the pattern of alternating passes and fails within a few hundred miles (2024‑11‑28 fail at 114,719 miles followed by a pass at 114,874 miles, then 2025‑12‑30 fail then 2026‑01‑09 pass) indicates an unstable maintenance trend. The vehicle’s owners appear to have addressed intermittent issues, but the recurrence suggests underlying components may need closer scrutiny. Mileage accumulation is steady for an 11‑year‑old vehicle. From 2023‑10‑24 (108,558 miles) to 2024‑11‑28 (114,719 miles) the odometer rose roughly 6,160 miles in 13 months, then a rapid 155‑mile swing to a pass. A similar 5,040‑mile increase occurred between 2024‑12‑12 (114,874 miles) and 2025‑12‑30 (119,917 miles), followed by a 138‑mile pass. The record is regular rather than sparse, and the average annual mileage of about 10,900 miles is typical for its age. Despite the clean defect logs, the close‑range failures point to wear on critical systems. A buyer should inspect the brake system for caliper binding, uneven disc wear, and pad thickness, and test for any pedal sponginess. The suspension should be examined for cracked bushes, worn coil springs, and excessive play in the rear arches. Listen for exhaust leaks or rust at the manifold and check the under‑body for corrosion around wheel arches and chassis rails. Tyre tread depth and pressure must be verified, as uneven wear can reflect alignment or suspension issues. The MOT history offers no recorded advisories, yet the pattern of failures hints at inconsistent basic upkeep. Requesting service invoices that explain the brake or suspension work performed between the failed and passed tests will confirm that the problems have been fully resolved and provide insight into the vehicle’s overall reliability.
