Based on 1,498 MOT tests from 137 vehicles analysed by VehicleScore. The figures below describe that VehicleScore sample. Recurring issues seen in VehicleScore MOT data are not a claim that every PEUGEOT EXPERT has the same fault.
PEUGEOT EXPERT's have a slightly over average reliability rating of 532/999. The score was calculated from the average of every PEUGEOT EXPERT that has had a registered MOT.
We calculated all of the below figures by getting the score from each vehicle make/model/year/fuel, which are each calculated a score. We then generate the average score, taking into account factors such as mileage and emissions.
Also check BHP & performance, road tax, fuel economy, and CO2 emissions for the PEUGEOT EXPERT.

Recurring issues seen in VehicleScore MOT data are inspection findings from this sample. They are not a statement that every PEUGEOT EXPERT has the same fault. The median VehicleScore in this sample is 645 out of 999.
These groups combine equivalent MOT comments, such as the same tyre note on different corners. Counts are comment occurrences in the sample, not a percentage of cars.
VehicleScore MOT data includes 160 advisory comments in this group. Seen mainly as an advisory. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record tyres that were worn, damaged, or close to the legal tread depth when the car was inspected.
What to inspect
Check the tread depth and look for uneven wear, cracking, or damage on all four tyres.
Example MOT wording: NEARSIDE FRONT TYRE WORN CLOSE TO LEGAL LIMIT/WORN ON EDGE (5.2.3 (E))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 80 advisory comments in this group. Seen mainly as an advisory. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record an oil leak noted by the tester. Shock absorber misting is counted as a damper issue, not as an engine oil leak.
What to inspect
Look under the engine for fresh oil, and check the oil level.
Example MOT wording: OIL LEAK, BUT NOT EXCESSIVE (8.4.1 (A) (I))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 61 advisory comments in this group. Seen mainly as an advisory. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record brake pads that were worn or below the inspection limit.
What to inspect
Ask for recent pad replacement and look at the remaining pad thickness.
Example MOT wording: FRONT BRAKE PAD(S) WEARING THIN (1.1.13 (A) (II))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 58 advisory comments in this group. Seen mainly as an advisory. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record brake discs that were worn, scored, pitted, or corroded.
What to inspect
Look at the disc faces for deep scoring, a lip at the edge, and corrosion.
Example MOT wording: FRONT BRAKE DISC WORN, PITTED OR SCORED, BUT NOT SERIOUSLY WEAKENED (1.1.14 (A) (II))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 52 failure comments in this group. Seen mainly as a failure reason. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record a lamp or bulb other than a headlamp or indicator.
What to inspect
Switch on the side, brake, fog, and number-plate lamps.
Example MOT wording: OFFSIDE FRONT POSITION LAMP NOT WORKING (4.2.1 (A) (II))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 33 advisory comments in this group. Seen mainly as an advisory. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record an indicator or side repeater that was not working or was insecure.
What to inspect
Check every indicator, including the side repeaters.
Example MOT wording: NEARSIDE REAR DIRECTION INDICATOR SLIGHTLY DISCOLOURED (4.4.3 (A))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 20 failure comments in this group. Seen mainly as a failure reason. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record chips, cracks, or other windscreen damage in the driver’s view.
What to inspect
Look for chips and cracks, especially in the area swept by the wipers.
Example MOT wording: NEARSIDE FRONT WINDSCREEN WIPER DOES NOT CLEAR THE WINDSCREEN EFFECTIVELY (3.4 (B) (II))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 18 failure comments in this group. Seen mainly as a failure reason. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record a worn or damaged ball joint. Track rod ends are counted with steering, not here.
What to inspect
Ask for the joint to be checked for play with the suspension loaded and unloaded.
Example MOT wording: OFFSIDE FRONT LOWER SUSPENSION ARM BALL JOINT EXCESSIVELY WORN (5.3.4 (A) (I))
A model year is only commented on when VehicleScore has at least 5 vehicles from that year.

This is an inspection checklist based on MOT comments in the VehicleScore sample. It does not mean the car you are looking at has these defects.
Tyre wear. Check the tread depth and look for uneven wear, cracking, or damage on all four tyres.
Oil leak. Look under the engine for fresh oil, and check the oil level.
Brake pad wear. Ask for recent pad replacement and look at the remaining pad thickness.
Brake disc wear. Look at the disc faces for deep scoring, a lip at the edge, and corrosion.
Lamp and bulb faults. Switch on the side, brake, fog, and number-plate lamps.
Indicator faults. Check every indicator, including the side repeaters.
Windscreen damage. Look for chips and cracks, especially in the area swept by the wipers.
Ball joint wear. Ask for the joint to be checked for play with the suspension loaded and unloaded.
Common problems tell you what can affect PEUGEOT EXPERTs generally. VehicleScore can check the history of the actual car you're considering.
VehicleScore analyses MOT histories from vehicles in its own dataset. Sample sizes vary by model, and a small sample is labelled as such. MOT data records roadworthiness and inspection defects. It does not capture every mechanical or electronic problem a car can have, and a comment on one test is not proof that the model has an inherent fault.
