Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2012 model year cars.
- Excessive Oil Consumption (FB Engines)Moderate
Early FB20 engines in the XV can burn oil at a rate that requires topping up between services.
- CVT Transmission ShudderSerious
The Lineartronic CVT can develop a shudder or "slip" sensation if the fluid is not changed regularly, especially on cars used for towing.
- Air-Conditioning Condenser DamageModerate
The low-mounted AC condenser is vulnerable to stone damage and corrosion from UK road salt, leading to refrigerant leaks and a loss of cooling. This is a recurring complaint on the XV, particularly on cars that have covered higher mileage on rough or gritted roads.
