What Cupra Ateca Vz1 Tsi 4drive S A failures look like

1,223 Cupra Ateca Vz1 Tsi 4drive S A tests on record carry the manual reference DVSA attaches to each defect. The most frequent problems were with axles, wheels, tyres and suspension on 358 tests (29.3%), with brakes on 273 tests (22.3%) and with visibility on 47 tests (3.8%). A test can fail on more than one thing, and an MOT can be failed on one defect while another is only advised, so these counts do not add up to the number of tests.

Narrowed down from the categories to the individual defects themselves, three come up on more than one test:

  • Tyre worn close to legal limit/worn on edge

    MOT inspection manual reference 5.2.3, in axles, wheels, tyres and suspension

    Recorded on 282 of the 1,223 tests: 50 failures and 232 advisories or minors.

  • Brake pad(s) wearing thin

  • Brake disc worn, pitted or scored, but not seriously weakened

    MOT inspection manual reference 1.1.14, in brakes

    Recorded on 97 of the 1,223 tests: all of them advisories or minors, so none of them failed a test on its own.
