Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2014 model year cars.
- NOx sensor and AdBlue faults (diesel)Moderate
Later diesel Insignias can develop SCR and NOx faults that trigger warning lights, poor running or restart-countdown messages.
- Electronic parking brake (EPB) failureModerate
The facelift did not eliminate EPB faults, so sticky rear calipers, weak motors or module issues still show up regularly on used cars.
- Haldex AWD pump failureSerious
Country Tourer, BiTurbo 4x4 and VXR models still need Haldex servicing; when it is skipped, the car can lose rear-drive assistance and store axle faults.
