Average for cars of the same age and mileage

Top failures

  1. Airbag warning lamp shows fault 1.62%

    A lit airbag warning means the airbag system may not deploy in a crash, so it needs diagnosing and repairing.

  2. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.52%

    Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.

  3. Parking brake efficiency below minimum 1.17%

    The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.

  4. Outline marker lamp not working 0.91%

    A failed outline marker lamp makes the car's width harder to see in the dark, and it must be repaired.

  5. Headlamp aim set too high 0.78%

    Headlamps aimed too high can dazzle other drivers, and adjusting them is usually a quick job.

  6. Headlamp aim set too low 0.75%

    Headlamps aimed too low light the road poorly and reduce the driver's view ahead, especially at night.

Common advisories

Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (4.94%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (3.13%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (2.25%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (1.85%) · Brake pads wearing thin (1.69%) · Shock absorber light oil misting (1.29%)
