Top failures
CV joint boot split or insecure 12.04%
A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.
Position lamp not working 10.6%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 6.4%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Stop lamp not working 5.82%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Registration plate lamp not working 4.73%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
Dipped beam headlamp not working 4.01%
A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (15.73%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (13.71%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (12.4%) · Brake pads wearing thin (9.51%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (4.51%) · Indicator lens slightly discoloured (3.7%)
