Top failures
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 2.4%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Service brake excessively binding 1.95%
A brake that drags when released can overheat, wear quickly and waste fuel, so it needs prompt inspection.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.84%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Suspension mounting area seriously corroded 1.7%
Corrosion near suspension mountings can seriously weaken the body structure, so an expert inspection is needed.
Headlamp beam pattern obviously incorrect 1.7%
A wrongly shaped beam can dazzle other drivers and reduce your own view of the road, so the lamps need correcting.
Position lamp not working 1.62%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Common advisories
Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (6.02%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (5.07%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (4.95%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (3.95%) · Brake pads wearing thin (2.99%)
