Average for cars of the same age and mileage

Top failures

  1. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.23%

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

  2. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.84%

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

  3. Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.54%

    A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.

  4. Tyre pressure monitoring system faulty 0.35%

    A faulty tyre pressure monitor cannot warn about low tyre pressure, so check tyres manually and have the fault diagnosed.

  5. Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.29%

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

  6. Headlamp aim set too high 0.27%

    Headlamps aimed too high can dazzle other drivers, and adjusting them is usually a quick job.

Common advisories

Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (10.87%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (6.21%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (1.04%) · Brake pads wearing thin (0.99%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (0.81%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (0.79%)
