Known faults for Mitsubishi Mitsubishi ASX
Our database tracks 3 specific mechanical faults and recurring failure patterns identified across UK MOT testing stations for this generation.
MOT Roadworthiness: Excellent

Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and budget for imme
When inspecting this specific vehicle, your priority should be the underside. The 2026 MOT record explicitly mentions corrosion on both the nearside and offside rear brake pipes, as well as a minor exhaust gas leak. You should ask the seller if these issues were rectified following the January 2026 test, as brake pipe corrosion can lead to sudden failure if left unaddressed.
Check the service history for evidence of regular oil changes, which is vital for the 1798cc diesel engine. Given the 2022 advisory regarding worn rear brake discs and pads, verify that the braking system has been fully overhauled recently. Negotiate the price downwards if the reported corrosion and exhaust leak have not yet been professionally repaired.
As a 1.8L diesel, this ASX is designed for higher mileage efficiency, though tax and insurance will depend on the specific UK insurance group assigned to this registration. Maintenance costs for this model typically involve regular diesel filter changes and attention to the suspension components, such as the anti-roll bar bush noted in the 2024 MOT.
Expect typical diesel running costs for a mid-sized SUV. Annual costs will be influenced by your annual mileage, but you should budget for the upcoming need to address the reported brake pipe and exhaust issues.
Focus heavily on the rear braking system. The MOT history shows a progression from worn discs and pads in 2022 to corroded brake pipes in 2026. Inspect the rear of the vehicle for signs of rust on the pipes and ensure they are not merely 'covered in grease' to hide the extent of the decay.
Additionally, listen for any unusual noises from the exhaust system to check the status of the minor leak reported in early 2026. Inspect the front suspension, specifically the anti-roll bar area, following the advisory recorded in late 2024 to ensure the bush or pin has been replaced.
This silver 2010 Mitsubishi ASX features a 1.8L diesel engine and has covered 80,091 miles as of January 2026. The MOT history shows a pattern of wear-related issues, moving from brake component advisories in 2022 to more significant corrosion concerns in the most recent 2026 test. While it has passed its tests, the recent findings suggest the vehicle is entering a period where maintenance costs may increase.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Mitsubishi ASX to provide a comparative benchmark.

Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: MITSUBISHI ASX
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- DPF Clogging (1.8 DI-D)(Moderate)
The diesel particulate filter clogs quickly if the car isn't driven on the motorway regularly.
- Oil Dilution (Diesel)(Serious)
Interrupted DPF regenerations cause unburnt fuel to leak into the oil sump, raising the oil level and thinning the lubricant.
