Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2002 model year cars.
- AW55 automatic gearbox wearSerious
Neglected fluid changes allow the five-speed auto to flare, bang into drive or feel reluctant once fully warmed through.
- Tailgate wiring and rear wash-wipe faultsModerate
Repeated tailgate movement can break the loom and washer pipework, bringing rear wiper failure, central-locking faults or water leaks into the boot area.
- Front suspension bush and top mount wearModerate
The V70’s weight and typical family use wear front bushes, links and top mounts steadily, leaving the estate clunky and vague.
