Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2014 model year cars.
- EGR and DPF Clogging on DieselsModerate
Frequent short journeys clog the EGR system and DPF, bringing flat performance, warning lights and expensive cleaning or replacement bills.
- Powershift Gearbox FaultsSerious
As in the S60, neglected Powershift estates can jerk, hesitate and eventually need major clutch or mechatronic work.
- VEA / Drive-E Oil ConsumptionSerious
Late V60 (P3) models with four-cylinder VEA engines can use oil heavily due to piston-ring design, requiring expensive engine work if not addressed.
