Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2021 model year cars.
- DCT Shudder & HesitationModerate
The dual-clutch transmission can be jerky at low speeds or shudder when pulling away, particularly if the car has been "crept" in traffic.
- GPF (Gasoline Particulate Filter) CloggingModerate
Models with a GPF (mostly post-2018) can suffer from clogging if driven only on short, low-speed trips, leading to warning lights and reduced power.
- 12V battery drain and flat batteryModerate
The small 12V auxiliary battery can drain when the car is left standing for several days, particularly if Bluelink or third-party apps keep waking the systems overnight. A flat 12V leaves the car completely dead despite a full main battery.
