Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2007 model year cars.
- Rear Arch, Sill and Underbody CorrosionSerious
GH cars can rust around the rear arches, sill ends and underbody mounting points long before the cabin or paintwork looks especially shabby.
- Diesel DPF and Oil Dilution TroubleSerious
Short-trip use can overload the DPF regeneration strategy on the 2.0 and especially 2.2 diesels, leading to rising oil levels, warning lights and turbo stress.
- Bose Audio Amplifier Internal Failure and Parasitic Battery DrainModerate
On models equipped with the factory premium Bose audio system (common on Sport and TS2 trims), the digital sound processor amplifier mounted under the driver's seat on UK right-hand drive cars suffers from thermal fatigue and moisture-induced component degradation. Because the amplifier is connected to the CAN-bus network and remains live even when the ignition is switched off, internal short circuits cause harsh machine-gun crackling, sudden bursts of white noise, complete audio failure, or a parasitic battery drain that flattens the 12V battery overnight. Specialist mail-in board-level rebuilds or replacement units are required.
