2014 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · WM64 FVE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, showing an improving maintenance trend following a period of mechanical decline. The most recent test in January 2026 at 125,389 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the issues identified in previous years have been addressed. This transition from multiple advisories to clean records suggests the current owner is taking proactive steps to rectify flagged faults. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 10,450 miles per year over its twelve-year lifespan. This reflects a typical usage profile for a Dacia Duster of this era. The record shows regular use, with 12,623 miles covered between December 2023 and January 2025, and another 12,305 miles recorded in the following thirteen months. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which often leads to seized brake calipers and internal corrosion. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension components given the recurring history of the offside front shock absorber. The tester flagged light misting in December 2022, which progressed to a failure for reduced damping and oil leakage by December 2023. While the recent pass is clean, a physical inspection should confirm the shock has been replaced and that the associated bushings are not prematurely perished. Additionally, the uneven tyre wear noted on the front axle in 2023 indicates potential alignment issues or worn suspension geometry that should be verified to prevent rapid degradation of new tyres.
