Top failures
Coil spring fractured or broken 7.6%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Shock absorber bush excessively worn 3.78%
Worn shock absorber bushes cause knocking and poor ride control, and they tend to worsen, so they need replacing.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 3.75%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 3.59%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Position lamp not working 2.48%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Registration plate lamp not working 2.46%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (18.75%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.32%) · Brake pads wearing thin (3.38%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (3.16%) · Shock absorber bush slightly worn (2.95%)
