Top failures

  1. Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 2.92%

    Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.

  2. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.91%

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

  3. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.83%

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

  4. Parking brake efficiency below minimum 1.78%

    The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.

  5. Rigid brake pipe excessively corroded 1.47%

    Badly corroded brake pipes can leak or fail, which can cause a loss of braking, so repair is urgent.

  6. Parking brake inoperative on one side 1.02%

    The parking brake does not work on one side, so the car may not hold on a slope and needs repair.

Common advisories

Tyre worn close to legal limit (14.85%) · Brake pads wearing thin (13.66%) · Brake pipes corroded and greasy (8.94%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (7.64%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6.13%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (3.35%)
