Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2005 model year cars.
- Rear Strut Tower and Sill CorrosionSerious
Turbo Mk2 cars rust in the same critical places as non-turbo versions, and hidden corrosion can ruin an otherwise desirable WRX or STI shell.
- Detonation and Piston Ringland DamageSerious
Poor mapping, low-quality fuel or hard use on modified cars can lead to detonation damage and cracked piston ringlands, especially on turbo engines that have been tuned beyond stock.
- 5-Speed Gearbox and Clutch WearSerious
Hard launches and repeated abuse can shorten the life of the WRX 5-speed gearbox and clutch, leading to baulky shifts, bearing noise or gear failure.
