Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2014 model year cars.
- Battery Degradation & "BMU Reset" MaskingSerious
The traction battery naturally loses capacity over time. A major concern is the "BMU Reset" where a technician or seller resets the Battery Management Unit, forcing it to report 100% health (State of Health). This "masks" the actual degradation until the car relearns the true capacity over several weeks.
- Electric Heater FailureModerate
The electric water heater (used when the engine is off) frequently fails. A small inline gauze filter can also block, preventing circulation.
- AC Compressor Failure (Wrong Oil)Serious
The electric compressor requires specialized POE oil. Using standard PAG oil during a regas will destroy the internal motor.
