Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.76%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.36%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 1.09%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 0.98%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.92%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Ball joint dust cover no longer sealed 0.92%
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 (12.18%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (9.17%) · Brake pads wearing thin (7.78%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (1.87%) · Brake discs showing some wear (1.78%) · Shock absorber light oil misting (1.65%)
