Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2023 model year cars.
- DSG Gearbox Jerk and DelayModerate
The DQ381 7-speed wet-clutch DSG can develop a jerky pull-away, delayed reverse engagement or a hissing noise during gear changes. Software updates help, but worn clutch packs on high-mileage cars may require a full rebuild.
- AdBlue / NOx Sensor FaultsModerate
The 2.0 TDI models with Selective Catalytic Reduction can develop NOx sensor or AdBlue heater faults, triggering a countdown to no-start and persistent warning lights. Sensor contamination from poor-quality AdBlue is a common cause.
- Front Wishbone Bush WearModerate
The front lower wishbone bushes wear prematurely, causing knocking noises over bumps and vague steering feel. On the B8 this is often picked up at MOT as an advisory.
