Average for cars of the same age and mileage

Top failures

  1. Position lamp not working 2.52%

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

  2. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.16%

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

  3. Fuel filler cap ineffective 1.7%

    A faulty fuel cap can let fuel vapour escape and may trigger warning lights, so a replacement is usually simple.

  4. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.53%

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

  5. Service brake excessively binding 1.4%

    A brake that drags when released can overheat, wear quickly and waste fuel, so it needs prompt inspection.

  6. Lambda reading outside specified limits 1.25%

    An out-of-range lambda reading suggests poor fuel mixture or a failing catalytic converter, so diagnosis is needed.

Common advisories

Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (12.41%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (11.07%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (6.41%) · Brake pads wearing thin (4.52%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (3.42%) · Brake discs showing some wear (2.53%)
