Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2007 model year cars.
- Head Gasket Failure (2.5L Petrol)Serious
The 2.5L petrol still suffers from external head-gasket leaks that eventually require an engine-out repair, showing as oil leaking onto the exhaust (burning-oil smell), coolant loss or overheating. UK MOT data records engine oil/coolant and exhaust leaks as failure areas on this generation.
- Front Suspension Knocking (Strut Mounts, Bushes)Moderate
Knocks and clunks from the front end over bumps and on full-lock turns are commonly traced to worn strut top mounts or suspension bushes. Suspension is a leading MOT failure category on the Outback, so front-end knocks should be investigated at a viewing.
- Rear Subframe and Underbody CorrosionModerate
UK road salt attacks the rear subframe, suspension mounts and underbody, often before the body panels look rusty. Corrosion around prescribed areas is a recorded MOT failure on this generation and can become structural if left unchecked.
