Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2014 model year cars.
- 2.2 CRDi DPF Clogging & Oil Dilution from Short JourneysModerate

- AWD Dynamax Coupling Spline Wear & Rear Diff BindingSerious
The Magna Dynamax electro-hydraulic 4WD coupling can suffer internal clutch pack wear or transfer case spline stripping if mismatched tyres are run across axles.
- Rear Suspension Bush & Self-Levelling Damper FailureModerate
Heavily loaded or towing vehicles suffer accelerated wear to rear trailing arm bushes and self-levelling rear shock absorbers, causing rear-end sagging and bouncing.
