Public MOT Roadworthiness vs. Experian Title Verification
MOT Roadworthiness Score: Good.
This score reflects recorded MOT passes and advisory patterns from official government data. However, a roadworthy car can still have £15,000 of unpaid finance debt, a total-loss write-off marker, or a police theft report.
Verify finance agreements, insurance write-offs, police stolen markers, and mileage rollback before paying the seller.

Common Problems: VOLKSWAGEN ARTEON
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- MQB Water Pump / Thermostat Leak(Moderate)
Like the Golf and Passat, the plastic thermostat housing warps from heat cycles, leading to a slow coolant leak. Can leave you stranded if ignored.
- DQ381 DSG Gearbox Judder(Moderate)
The 7-speed wet-clutch DQ381 DSG can develop a judder on pull-away and low-speed manoeuvres. Software updates help but worn clutch packs may need replacement.
- EGR Valve Failure (2.0 TDI)(Moderate)
The EGR valve on 2.0 TDI models can stick or fail, causing power loss and engine management warnings. Carbon buildup is exacerbated by short urban journeys.
- DCC Adaptive Chassis Control Failure(Moderate)
Cars fitted with Dynamic Chassis Control (DCC) can develop fault lights and loss of damper adjustment. The dampers or control module may need replacement.
