Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2006 model year cars.
- Rear Trailing Arm BushesModerate
Worn rear bushes lead to poor tracking and high tyre wear.
- Turbocharger FailureSerious
All 9-5 engines use a turbocharger, and lack of maintenance or oil sludge can cause premature turbo bearing failure. A blown turbo can send oil into the intake or exhaust, causing smoke and potential engine damage.
- Timing Chain Rattle (4-Cylinder Engines)Serious
The timing chains on B205/B235 engines can stretch and rattle, especially on cold start. If the chain tensioner fails, the chain can skip teeth and cause valve-piston contact.
