- DCT gearbox clutch judderSerious
The 7-speed dual-clutch transmission can develop shudder, hesitation and poor low-speed manners. Some cars improve with software, others need a clutch pack.
- Rear differential or coupling whine on AWD modelsModerate
A high-pitched rear whine or vibration often points to diff or coupling wear, especially where tyres have been mismatched or servicing has been ignored.
- LED DRL and camera-related electrical faultsModerate
Lighting electronics, reverse cameras and tailgate wiring can all cause minor but annoying faults on ageing QL cars.
