Top failures
CV joint boot split or insecure 5.35%
A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.
Position lamp not working 5.02%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Coil spring fractured or broken 3.99%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
ABS warning lamp shows a fault 3.94%
A lit ABS warning means the anti-lock system may not work, so wheels could lock during emergency braking.
Suspension arm pin/bush excessively worn 3.06%
Worn suspension arm bushes allow the wheel to move unpredictably, affecting steering, handling and tyre wear.
Rigid brake pipe excessively corroded 2.91%
Badly corroded brake pipes can leak or fail, which can cause a loss of braking, so repair is urgent.
Common advisories
Brake pipes corroded and greasy (17.53%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (15.35%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (14.55%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (14.36%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (11.18%) · Coil spring showing some corrosion (8.17%)
