Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2013 model year cars.
- DPF Oil Contamination on Diesel ModelsModerate
First-generation diesel 2008s fitted with a DPF can suffer oil contamination if the DPF regeneration cycle is interrupted mid-way — for example by switching the engine off during a forced regen. Fuel leaks into the oil system, gradually raising the oil level and risking engine damage. This is especially relevant to UK cars used predominantly on short, low-speed urban trips where the DPF rarely reaches regeneration temperature. Regular motorway running and checking the oil level are essential preventative measures.
- Front Suspension Wishbone Mounting Bolt FailureSerious
A recall affected first-generation 2008s built in 2013 and 2014 where the mounting bolts on the front suspension wishbones could break or had not been tightened correctly at the factory. A broken bolt can cause clunks, vibration, vague steering and in the worst case a loss of steering control. Affected vehicles should have had the bolts replaced free of charge under the recall, but used buyers must confirm the work was completed.
