MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2009 Volkswagen Golf (YH09 PMX) between June 2023 and July 2025.

The record contains 2 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 31 July 2025 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (7 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Suspension (1 issue), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 6 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Windscreen washer jets misaligned and not providing sufficient fluid to the windscreen (3.5 (a))”; “Front Brakes imbalanced across an axle Axle 1 (1.2.1 (b) (i))”; “Rear Brakes imbalanced across an axle Axle 2 (1.2.1 (b) (i))”.
