2013 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · GL13 WUD

The 2013 Peugeot 2008 has a recent MOT history showing mixed results, with the most recent entry on 2024-09-19 recording a pass at 77,915 miles. However, a failure just one day prior (2024-09-18) revealed critical issues: an insecure central exhaust system , exhaust emissions affected by a leak , excessive blue smoke during acceleration , and incomplete emissions testing . These findings indicate a serious and unresolved exhaust system problem, likely linked to a persistent leak or structural damage. Recurring mechanical patterns include exhaust system failures and tyre-related issues . The 2023-07-20 failure listed a major exhaust gas leak and cracked rear tyres , while the 2023-08-02 pass noted cracking tyres . The 2022-07-25 MOT highlighted a front tyre worn close to the legal limit . These suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, potentially due to neglect, improper repair, or underlying structural issues affecting the exhaust and tyre integrity. The trend shows no clear improvement . Despite the 2024-09-19 pass, the prior failure’s severity implies the exhaust system was not fully resolved. Tyre damage has recurred across multiple MOTs, raising concerns about consistent maintenance or road conditions.
