2018 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · DG68 DFX

The 2018 Vauxhall Mokka has a recent MOT failure from September 2025, showing an engine MIL light malfunction. This defect was not present during the previous pass in September 2025, indicating a new issue that needs immediate attention. The vehicle’s MOT history shows a pattern of minor, non-safety-critical defects over time. The most recent failure points to a potential engine management problem, which could affect performance, emissions, and fuel efficiency. There were no major defects in earlier tests, suggesting the car was otherwise mechanically sound. The trend appears to be worsening slightly. While the car passed in 2024 and 2022 without issues, the 2025 failure introduces a new concern. The gap between MOTs is relatively short, so any deterioration in condition is likely to be minimal but worth noting. With just 27,990 miles on an 8-year-old vehicle, the mileage is unusually low. This suggests either very light use or extended periods of inactivity.
