Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2016 model year cars.
- Water Pump / Thermostat Housing LeakModerate
The plastic water pump and thermostat housing warp and leak coolant, a well-known weakness across the EA888 range. Some cars fail twice before 100k miles.
- DL501 S tronic Mechatronic / Clutch FaultsSerious
The DL501 can develop control and clutch faults that cause harsh engagement or loss of gears. Confirm the transmission code rather than applying this warning to Multitronic or Tiptronic cars.
- TDI EGR Faults / DPF Regeneration ProblemsModerate
EGR faults and unsuccessful DPF regeneration can cause reduced performance. DPF equipment varies on older diesels; confirm fitment and diagnose the cause before assuming that cleaning will solve it.
