2015 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Diesel · YL65 EFH

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, following a clean pass in its most recent test on April 16 2025 at 49,136 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has transitioned from previous failures to consecutive clean passes with no recorded defects. The lack of advisories in the latest two tests suggests that the previous owner was proactive in rectifying identified issues before they escalated into persistent mechanical failures. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 49,136 miles is significantly below the national average, averaging only approximately 4,467 miles per year. This low usage profile suggests light wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, the data shows a period of higher activity between April 2023 and April 2024, where the vehicle covered nearly 4,000 miles in a single year. The low annual mileage over long periods can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or surface corrosion on brake discs despite the low mechanical wear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific components that caused the failures in 2023 and 2024, as the record does not detail the exact nature of those faults. Given the age of the vehicle, it is vital to check for cracks in suspension bushes and coil springs, which can become brittle over time regardless of mileage if the car has remained stationary for long intervals. Additionally, inspect the brake calipers for seizing or uneven wear to ensure the low mileage has not resulted in rusted pistons or uneven pad performance.
