Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2012 model year cars.
- Haldex Coupling Pump FailureModerate
The Haldex AWD coupling pump becomes clogged with sludge or its pressure sensor fails, disabling the 4WD system and triggering traction warnings.
- DPF and EGR Issues (Diesel)Moderate
Diesel particulate filter blocks and EGR valves clog, especially on short urban journeys. Can cause limp mode, power loss and increased fuel consumption.
- Power Steering Hose LeaksModerate
The high-pressure power steering hose near the rack develops cracks and leaks, causing heavy steering and whining noises. The steering rack itself can also fail on pre-2008 models due to manufacturing contamination.
