Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Position lamp not working 4.71%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 3.1%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre pressure monitoring system faulty 2.89%
A faulty tyre pressure monitor cannot warn about low tyre pressure, so check tyres manually and have the fault diagnosed.
Coil spring fractured or broken 2.69%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Diesel engine warning light faulty 2.6%
A lit or non-working engine warning light can hide faults, so diagnosis is needed before buying.
Track rod end dust cover damaged 2.15%
A damaged dust cover lets dirt into the ball joint, which speeds up wear and may lead to a costly replacement.
