Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2021 model year cars.
- Clutch Pedal StickingModerate
The clutch pedal can stick to the floor or become slow to return due to failing hydraulic cylinders.
- 1.6 CDTi Timing Chain Rattle ("Whisper Diesel")Serious
The 1.6 CDTi engine is known for a severe timing chain rattle. The chain is located at the back of the engine (gearbox side), making replacement extremely expensive due to high labor (12-15 hours). A faulty tensioner causes a dry-start rattle that leads to chain stretch.
- NOx sensor and AdBlue faults (diesel)Moderate
Modern diesel Astras can develop SCR-related warnings, failed emissions tests or limp behaviour through NOx and AdBlue-system faults.
