Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2016 model year cars.
- 1.6 HDi/BlueHDi turbo and DPF issuesModerate
Needs strict oil changes to protect the turbo.
- AdBlue System Faults (BlueHDi)Serious
The AdBlue tank, pump and injector on later BlueHDi models can fail, triggering UREA warnings and eventually a non-start countdown. Replacing the complete tank assembly is the usual fix and is costly.
- Electric Power Steering (EPAS) FailureSerious
The electrically-assisted steering can develop heavy or unassisted feel at low speed. The EPAS column is a known PSA weak point on this generation.
