Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2012 model year cars.
- EGR and DPF Clogging on DieselsModerate
Frequent short journeys clog the EGR system and DPF, bringing flat performance, warning lights and expensive cleaning or replacement bills.
- Powershift Gearbox FaultsSerious
As in the S60, neglected Powershift estates can jerk, hesitate and eventually need major clutch or mechatronic work.
- Tailgate Lock and Powered-Tailgate FaultsModerate
Estate-specific lock, loom and powered-tailgate problems can leave the V60 awkward to use and, in some cases, vulnerable to water-related electrical issues.
