Top failures
Suspension arm pin/bush excessively worn 2.19%
Worn suspension arm bushes allow the wheel to move unpredictably, affecting steering, handling and tyre wear.
Rigid brake pipe excessively corroded 2.11%
Badly corroded brake pipes can leak or fail, which can cause a loss of braking, so repair is urgent.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 1.69%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.54%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Registration plate lamp not working 1.37%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
CV joint boot split or insecure 1.17%
A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (12.41%) · Brake pipes corroded and greasy (10.09%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (9.88%) · Brake pads wearing thin (5.73%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (5.44%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (5.28%)
