Top failures
Coil spring fractured or broken 8.39%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Shock absorber bush excessively worn 5.72%
Worn shock absorber bushes cause knocking and poor ride control, and they tend to worsen, so they need replacing.
Position lamp not working 3.93%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 3.79%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 3.46%
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 2.59%
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 (20.15%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (9.84%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (9.16%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.63%) · Shock absorber bush slightly worn (4.34%) · Brake pads wearing thin (3.61%)
