Top failures
Coil spring fractured or broken 9.29%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Shock absorber bush excessively worn 4.8%
Worn shock absorber bushes cause knocking and poor ride control, and they tend to worsen, so they need replacing.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 3.76%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Position lamp not working 3.61%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 3.03%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Registration plate lamp not working 2.57%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (19.09%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (12.01%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (9.84%) · Shock absorber bush slightly worn (4.8%) · Shock absorber light oil misting (4.62%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.5%)
