Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2017 model year cars.
- Engine Mount CrackingModerate
Like the F56 hatch, the hydraulic engine mount can split and leak, creating vibration and a dull knock under load changes.
- Front Suspension / Inner Tyre WearModerate
The heavy front end and UK roads mean bushes, drop links, and alignment can wear enough to create inner-edge tyre wear before owners notice.
- BDC (Body Domain Controller) Water DamageSerious
Clogged sunroof drains or A-pillar leaks can flood the BDC module in the passenger footwell, leading to major electrical failures.
