Top failures

  1. Coil spring fractured or broken 4.22%

    A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.

  2. Position lamp not working 3.88%

    A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.

  3. Engine warning light inoperative or lit 3.22%

    An engine warning light that is lit or not working can hide faults, so diagnosis is needed before buying.

  4. CV joint boot split or insecure 2.99%

    A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.

  5. Anti-roll bar linkage dust cover unsealed 2.5%

    A damaged dust cover lets dirt into the linkage joint, speeding wear and possibly needing a future repair.

  6. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 2.1%

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

Common advisories

Tyre worn close to legal limit (14.05%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (7.77%) · Coil spring showing some corrosion (6.32%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6.07%) · Sub-frame showing corrosion (4.94%) · Brake pads wearing thin (4.18%)
