Top failures
Position lamp not working 7.51%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Suspension mounting area seriously corroded 7%
Corrosion near suspension mountings can seriously weaken the body structure, so an expert inspection is needed.
Suspension arm pin/bush excessively worn 6.95%
Worn suspension arm bushes allow the wheel to move unpredictably, affecting steering, handling and tyre wear.
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 4.71%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 4.03%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Seat belt anchor area weakened 4.03%
Corrosion near a seat belt anchor can weaken the body and make the belt fail, so expert repair is needed.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (18.04%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (14.4%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (9.02%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (8.52%) · Sub-frame showing corrosion (6.78%) · Coil spring showing some corrosion (6.72%)
