2015 Nissan Navara 2.5L Diesel · WO65 DVT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in November 2024 at 115,819 miles identified severe deterioration on both the nearside and offside front drive shaft constant velocity boots. While the vehicle passed despite these defects, the presence of dual failing boots indicates an imminent risk of grease loss and joint failure, which will lead to premature drive shaft wear if not addressed immediately. The mileage pattern remains consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,500 miles per year. Between November 2022 and November 2023, the vehicle covered 9,531 miles, showing a steady usage profile. However, the data reveals a period of neglect in late 2022 when the vehicle failed the test at 101,071 miles due to an SRS warning lamp fault and an inoperative engine management system light. These failures suggest that the previous owner only addressed electrical and mechanical faults when they directly prevented an MOT pass. A buyer must personally inspect the front drivetrain assembly to ensure that the deteriorated CV boots have not already caused damage to the internal joints. The history also notes an offside front wheel bearing failure in 2023 at 110,598 miles, so the hub assemblies should be checked for play or noise. Given the age and mileage of this Navara, a thorough inspection of the chassis for structural corrosion, particularly on the suspension mounting points and leaf spring hangers, is essential to catch issues for this model that the MOT record does not explicitly detail.
