- Powershift gearbox faults(Serious)
Dual-clutch Powershift transmissions can jerk, overheat or fail expensively if fluid servicing has been skipped.

The C30’s glass-heavy hatch and latch wiring can cause intermittent boot release problems or central-locking behaviour that feels random.

The C30’s firmer setup means tired front bushes, links and top mounts show up quickly as knocks and a brittle ride.
