What Hyundai I30 failures look like

1,129,705 Hyundai I30 tests on record carry the manual reference DVSA attaches to each defect. The most frequent problems were with axles, wheels, tyres and suspension on 596,437 tests (52.8%), with brakes on 390,001 tests (34.5%) and with lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment on 217,700 tests (19.3%). 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 328,159 of the 1,129,705 tests: 56,879 failures and 271,280 advisories or minors.

  • Suspension arm pin or bush worn but not resulting in excessive movement

    MOT inspection manual reference 5.3.4, in axles, wheels, tyres and suspension

    Recorded on 166,323 of the 1,129,705 tests: 50,954 failures and 115,369 advisories or minors.

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

    MOT inspection manual reference 1.1.14, in brakes

    Recorded on 148,412 of the 1,129,705 tests: 10,151 failures and 138,261 advisories or minors.

Where there is enough data to compare: Hyundai I10 (2,299,068 tests), Hyundai I20 (1,211,620 tests), Hyundai Tucson (898,137 tests), Hyundai Ix35 (607,215 tests), every Hyundai model (8,859,818 tests).

Clauses are read from the manual reference at the end of every defect on the cached test records, and a defect shown here has to appear on at least two of them before it is named. The site-wide breakdown explains how that works and compares every make.
