Top failures

  1. Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.74%

    Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.

  2. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.23%

    Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.

  3. Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.78%

    A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.

  4. Tyre ply or cords exposed 0.43%

    Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.

  5. Headlamp aim set too high 0.43%

    Headlamps aimed too high can dazzle other drivers, and adjusting them is usually a quick job.

  6. Diesel engine warning light faulty 0.4%

    A lit or non-working engine warning light can hide faults, so diagnosis is needed before buying.

Common advisories

Brake pads wearing thin (9.27%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (9.19%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (8.64%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (3.02%) · Brake discs showing some wear (1.64%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (1.59%)
