Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2000 model year cars.
- Multi-Link Front Upper Control Arm Pinch Bolt Seizure & Bush TearingModerate
The four-link front suspension features long steel pinch bolts through the aluminum hub carriers that seize solid from galvanic corrosion and road salt, while the upper and lower control arm rubber bushes split and knock.
- Plenum Chamber Battery Drain Rubber Grommet Blockage & Brake Servo FloodingSerious
The battery tray sits in a bulkhead plenum chamber with two one-way rubber drain grommets that clog with road debris and pine needles. Trapped water submerges the brake servo, drawing water into the vacuum line and rusting the servo shell.
- 1.8T Longitudinal Oil Sump Sludge & Hydraulic Lifter StarvationSerious
The longitudinally mounted 1.8T has a relatively small 3.5-litre oil capacity. Following factory long-life variable service schedules causes severe oil coking that chokes the oil pump pickup pipe gauze, starving the camshafts and turbo.
