Top failures

  1. Diesel engine warning light faulty 3.9%

    A lit or non-working engine warning light can hide faults, so diagnosis is needed before buying.

  2. Tyre ply or cords exposed 3.05%

    Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.

  3. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 2.27%

    Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.

  4. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.27%

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

  5. Coil spring fractured or broken 2.12%

    A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.

  6. Registration plate lamp not working 1.91%

    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 (17.21%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (5.88%) · Brake pads wearing thin (5.1%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.11%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (3.33%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (2.48%)
