Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2010 model year cars.
- N47 Timing Chain FailureSerious
The rear-mounted timing chain can stretch or jump if wear is ignored. On early units, the crankshaft sprocket teeth were too sharp, accelerating wear (Recall 14V054). On UK cars this is the headline risk on 118d, 120d, and 123d models.
- Differential Bearing FailureSerious
Rear differential bearings can wear and start whining, especially on cars that have run mismatched rear tyres or skipped fluid changes.
- ABS Pump / DSC Module FailureModerate
The DSC hydraulic unit and pressure sensor are common failures, often showing up as ABS, DSC, and handbrake warnings that can become an MOT issue.
