Top failures

  1. Coil spring fractured or broken 5.78%

    A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.

  2. Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 5.48%

    Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.

  3. Position lamp not working 5.4%

    A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.

  4. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 4.23%

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

  5. Shock absorber bush excessively worn 3.85%

    Worn shock absorber bushes cause knocking and poor ride control, and they tend to worsen, so they need replacing.

  6. Headlamp beam pattern obviously incorrect 3.81%

    A wrongly shaped beam can dazzle other drivers and reduce your own view of the road, so the lamps need correcting.

Common advisories

Tyre worn close to legal limit (19%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (14.33%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (10.23%) · Coil spring showing some corrosion (9.45%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (6.66%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (6.54%)
