2010 Volvo XC60 2.4L Diesel · WF10 KSK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in February 2026 at 156,486 miles identified a worn bush on the nearside rear suspension arm pin. While the car passed with this advisory, it indicates that the suspension components are beginning to reach the end of their service life, following a history of mechanical wear-related failures in previous years. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. Between February 2024 at 121,817 miles and February 2026 at 156,486 miles, the car covered over 34,000 miles, indicating a period of recent high usage. This surge explains the accelerated wear on rubber components and drivetrain parts. There are no significant gaps in the testing history, suggesting the vehicle has remained in regular use without long periods of standing. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the suspension system, as the record shows a fractured nearside rear coil spring in early 2023 and a subsequent worn bush in 2026. These recurring issues suggest the lower arms and springs are under significant stress. Additionally, the repeated flagging of tyres worn to the legal limit in both 2023 and 2025 points to potential alignment issues or a habit of neglecting basic consumable maintenance. The exhaust system should be checked to ensure the broken mounting noted in 2024 has not resulted in further structural vibration or damage to the piping.
