Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2013 model year cars.
- Front Suspension Component WearModerate
Drop links and lower-arm bushes can wear prematurely on cars used on rough roads.
- DPF Clogging (Diesel Models)Serious
The diesel particulate filter clogs quickly if the car is not driven on the motorway regularly. Interrupted DPF regenerations can cause diesel to leak into the oil sump, thinning the lubricant and potentially damaging the engine.
- AllGrip 4WD System FaultsModerate
The AllGrip electronic coupling can develop faults where the system fails to engage or disengages unexpectedly. Warning lights may appear and the system may default to front-wheel drive.
