Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- K-Series Head Gasket Failure (HGF)(Serious)
The 1.1, 1.4, 1.6, and 1.8 engines are all prone to gasket failure due to plastic dowels and a small coolant capacity.
- SCU / BCU Relay Failure(Moderate)
Models from 2003 onwards (facelift) use a Pektron Security Control Unit. The internal relays fail, affecting various electrical systems.
- Rusting Rear Arches(Moderate)
Water gets trapped behind the lip of the rear wheel arches, causing rust to rot through from the inside.
