Top failures
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 6.02%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Position lamp not working 5.82%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Parking brake inoperative on one side 4.05%
The parking brake does not work on one side, so the car may not hold on a slope and needs repair.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 3.95%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Service brake excessively binding 3.46%
A brake that drags when released can overheat, wear quickly and waste fuel, so it needs prompt inspection.
Diesel engine warning light faulty 3.26%
A lit or non-working engine warning light can hide faults, so diagnosis is needed before buying.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (15.79%) · Brake pads wearing thin (11.35%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (8.69%) · Shock absorber light oil misting (8.49%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (6.81%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6.81%)
