Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.36%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.48%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Position lamp not working 1.23%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.99%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.71%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Anti-roll bar linkage dust cover unsealed 0.64%
A damaged dust cover lets dirt into the linkage joint, speeding wear and possibly needing a future repair.
Common advisories
Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (12.15%) · Brake pads wearing thin (8.88%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (8.39%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (6.22%) · Tyre has a shallow cut (1.7%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (1.63%)
