Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2018 model year cars.
- 1.2 PureTech "Wet" Timing Belt DegradationSerious
The timing belt runs inside the engine oil. If the wrong oil is used or intervals are missed, the belt degrades, shedding debris that blocks the oil pickup pipe and destroys the engine.
- Air Conditioning Condenser LeakModerate
The condenser mounted low behind the front grille is susceptible to stone chips and corrosion, leading to gradual loss of refrigerant.
- 1.2 PureTech Oil ConsumptionModerate
Some PureTech engines consume oil at an elevated rate, requiring top-ups between services. This can be exacerbated by short-trip driving where the engine does not reach full operating temperature.
