Top failures

  1. Ball joint dust cover no longer sealed 1.76%

    A damaged dust cover lets dirt into the joint, speeding wear, so the joint may need replacing later.

  2. Tyre ply or cords exposed 1.51%

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

  3. Anti-roll bar linkage dust cover unsealed 1.44%

    A damaged dust cover lets dirt into the linkage joint, speeding wear and possibly needing a future repair.

  4. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.16%

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

  5. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.03%

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

  6. Suspension rod dust cover no longer sealed 1%

    A damaged dust cover lets dirt into the joint, speeding wear, so the joint may need replacing later.

Common advisories

Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.07%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (5.17%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (4.42%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.08%) · Sub-frame showing corrosion (4.08%) · Brake pads wearing thin (2.85%)
