In total 29 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Central Exhaust emissions likely to be affected by an exhaust leak middle box (8.2.2.1 (b))”; “Nearside Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”.
Common Problems: VOLVO C30
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Powershift gearbox faults(Serious)
Dual-clutch Powershift transmissions can jerk, overheat or fail expensively if fluid servicing has been skipped.
- Rear hatch latch and lock faults(Moderate)
The C30’s glass-heavy hatch and latch wiring can cause intermittent boot release problems or central-locking behaviour that feels random.
- Front suspension bush and drop-link wear(Moderate)
The C30’s firmer setup means tired front bushes, links and top mounts show up quickly as knocks and a brittle ride.
