Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2018 model year cars.
- EGR and DPF Clogging on DieselsModerate
Frequent short journeys clog the EGR system and DPF, bringing flat performance, warning lights and expensive cleaning or replacement bills.
- VEA / Drive-E Oil ConsumptionSerious
Late V60 (P3) models with four-cylinder VEA engines can use oil heavily due to piston-ring design, requiring expensive engine work if not addressed.
- Tailgate Lock and Powered-Tailgate FaultsModerate
Estate-specific lock, loom and powered-tailgate problems can leave the V60 awkward to use and, in some cases, vulnerable to water-related electrical issues.
