Top failures

  1. Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 3.39%

    Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.

  2. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 2.9%

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

  3. Position lamp not working 2.63%

    A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.

  4. Tyre ply or cords exposed 2.21%

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

  5. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.59%

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

  6. Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint worn 1.31%

    A worn linkage ball joint can rattle, affect handling and eventually fail, so it should be replaced.

Common advisories

Tyre worn close to legal limit (17.77%) · Brake pads wearing thin (12.93%) · Linkage ball joint slight play (11.62%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (9.82%) · Suspension ball joint slight play (4.84%) · Anti-roll bar ball joint slight play (2.84%)
