Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2008 model year cars.
- Blocked "Duckbill" AC DrainModerate
The rubber drain for the AC evaporator sticks shut, causing condensation to overflow into the passenger footwell.
- CATS Active Damping FailureModerate
The electronic components inside the adaptive dampers (standard on most X150s) tend to fail around 60,000 miles, causing the suspension to default to a fixed setting. The car may display a suspension fault warning and ride quality becomes noticeably harsher or inconsistent.
- Electronic Parking Brake FailureModerate
The electronic parking brake can fail around five years of age, typically due to motor or cable issues. The EPB warning light illuminates and the brake may not apply or release correctly, potentially leaving the car stuck or unable to park safely.
