Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.64%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.2%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Diesel engine warning light faulty 1.12%
A lit or non-working engine warning light can hide faults, so diagnosis is needed before buying.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.09%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Dipped beam headlamp not working 0.6%
A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.
Headlamp aim set too low 0.59%
Headlamps aimed too low light the road poorly and reduce the driver's view ahead, especially at night.
Common advisories
Brake disc pitted or scored (10.58%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.23%) · Brake pads wearing thin (8.47%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6.3%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (1.86%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (1.64%)
