Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Position lamp not working 8.68%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Headlamp beam pattern obviously incorrect 5.99%
A wrongly shaped beam can dazzle other drivers and reduce your own view of the road, so the lamps need correcting.
Rear fog lamp not working 5.13%
A failed rear fog lamp reduces visibility in fog and leaves you less visible to following traffic, so repair it.
Rigid brake pipe excessively corroded 4.61%
Badly corroded brake pipes can leak or fail, which can cause a loss of braking, so repair is urgent.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 4.47%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Shock absorber bush excessively worn 4.14%
Worn shock absorber bushes cause knocking and poor ride control, and they tend to worsen, so they need replacing.
Common advisories
Brake pipes corroded and greasy (22.11%) · Wheel bearing slight play (19.21%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (12.3%) · Suspension ball joint slight play (6.78%) · Chassis corroded but still rigid (5.86%) · Shock absorber bush slightly worn (5.13%)
