Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2016 model year cars.
- Turbocharger Seal LeaksSerious
In rare cases, the seals in the turbochargers can fail, leading to oil being pulled into the intake or exhaust.
- Turbo Wastegate Actuator WearSerious
The electronically controlled wastegate actuators on the twin IHI turbochargers can develop wear in the linkage or internal motor, leading to inconsistent boost pressure, turbo flutter sounds, and eventual loss of power. Owners report a faint fan-like flutter from the rear air intakes as an early warning sign. Complete turbo failure can follow if left unaddressed, with replacement units costing around £10,000 each.
- Oil Consumption and Carbon BuildupModerate
The twin-turbo V8 can develop higher-than-expected oil consumption as mileage increases, with owners reporting up to 1 litre per 1,500 miles under hard use. Additionally, carbon buildup on the direct-injection intake valves is a known issue, requiring periodic walnut blasting to restore performance and prevent misfires.
