Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2009 model year cars.
- Excessive Oil Consumption (EA888 Gen 2)Serious
Faulty piston rings on early EA888 engines (CDNB, CDNC codes) cause severe oil burning as carbon blocks the thin oil control rings.
- Water Pump / Thermostat Housing LeakModerate
The plastic water pump and thermostat housing warp and leak coolant, a well-known weakness across the EA888 range. Some cars fail twice before 100k miles.
- Multitronic CVT FailureSerious
Front-wheel-drive automatics use the Multitronic CVT which can judder, flare or lose drive if fluid changes were skipped or the control unit fails.
