Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2011 model year cars.
- TFSI Timing Chain Stretch & Cold-Start Rattle (EA111)Serious
Early small-capacity TFSI engines (1.2 and 1.4 EA111) use hydraulic chain tensioners that lose tension overnight. On cold start, the chain rattles violently against the timing cover and can jump teeth, causing piston-to-valve contact.
- S tronic (DQ200) 7-Speed Dry Dual-Clutch Mechatronic Unit FailureSerious
The 7-speed dry-clutch transmission suffers from internal hydraulic pressure loss and electronic mechatronic module failure, causing severe low-speed judder, refusal to engage reverse, or total loss of drive.
- Panoramic Sunroof Drainage Tube Detachment & Footwell FloodingModerate
The front and rear drainage hoses for the panoramic glass sunroof shrink and pull away from the A-pillar and C-pillar drain spigots, draining rainwater directly behind the dash into the front carpets.
