Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2014 model year cars.
- Powershift Gearbox Hesitation and Clutch WearSerious
Dual-clutch Powershift cars can jerk, shudder or lose drive if fluid servicing has been skipped or the clutch and mechatronic hardware is wearing out.
- VEA / Drive-E Oil ConsumptionSerious
Some later four-cylinder cars can use oil heavily because of piston-ring or crankcase-breathing issues, and ignored consumption can lead to major engine work.
- Front Suspension Bush and Top-Mount WearModerate
The S60’s weight and UK road use wear front bushes, links and top mounts, gradually turning a refined saloon into a clunky one.
