Top failures
Headlamp beam pattern obviously incorrect 1.76%
A wrongly shaped beam can dazzle other drivers and reduce your own view of the road, so the lamps need correcting.
Suspension arm pin/bush excessively worn 1.42%
Worn suspension arm bushes allow the wheel to move unpredictably, affecting steering, handling and tyre wear.
Coil spring fractured or broken 1.38%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Position lamp not working 1.24%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.22%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.19%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Common advisories
Shock absorber light oil misting (12.77%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.14%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (9.12%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (8.16%) · Brake pads wearing thin (6.52%) · Suspension arm showing corrosion (3.8%)
