Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2014 model year cars.
- Airmatic air suspension leaksSerious
Air springs leak over time and compressors burn out trying to keep the car level. One corner sagging overnight is a classic sign.
- OM651 Diesel Timing Chain Tensioner Oil LeakModerate
The gasket on the timing chain tensioner can fail, leaking oil and reducing tensioner pressure. This can cause chain rattle and eventual stretch.
- 7G-Tronic gearbox conductor plate failureModerate
The 7-speed automatic gearbox can suffer from conductor plate and speed sensor failures, leading to harsh shifts, limp mode and gear selection faults.
