If you own or are considering buying a 2020 Fiat Rapdio, you can expect reliable MOT performance overall.

Identification of the vehicle โ€” 6.0% of failures

Identification of the vehicle issues account for 6.0% of MOT failures on 2020 Fiat Rapdio models. Identification failures relate to the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and registration plate. The VIN must be permanently displayed and legible, and the registration plate must meet British Standard formatting. Typical repair costs: ยฃ10โ€“50. Pre-MOT check: Ensure the VIN plate is visible and legible (usually in the windscreen or under the bonnet). Check that number plates are clean, undamaged, and use the correct font and spacing.

Noise, emissions and leaks โ€” 3.0% of failures

Noise, emissions and leaks issues account for 3.0% of MOT failures on 2020 Fiat Rapdio models. Emissions failures occur when exhaust gases exceed legal limits for carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), or particulate matter (diesel). Common causes include faulty oxygen sensors, clogged catalytic converters, or DPF issues on diesel vehicles. Typical repair costs: ยฃ100โ€“1,000+. Pre-MOT check: If the engine management light is on, get it diagnosed before the MOT. For diesel cars, ensure the DPF has completed a regeneration cycle. Regular servicing and using premium fuel before the test can help.

Suspension โ€” 3.0% of failures

Suspension issues account for 3.0% of MOT failures on 2020 Fiat Rapdio models. Suspension failures typically involve worn bushes, leaking shock absorbers, broken coil springs, and damaged suspension arms. These affect ride quality, tyre wear, and road holding. Typical repair costs: ยฃ200โ€“500. Pre-MOT check: Look for uneven tyre wear, listen for clunking over bumps, and check if the car pulls to one side. A bouncy ride suggests worn shock absorbers. Visually inspect coil springs for cracks.
