Not really a poll, but hopefully we can get enough data to highlight what the typical issues are on our cars?

I'll start:

Type : SD
Mileage : 30k
Age : 2.5 yrs
Claim : Transfer Box

Maybe some cleverer web devs can do it properly but its a start,,,

Turbo
10k
2 yrs
Steering column squeak. Not bad enough to fix yet though and tech couldn't reproduce it at 2 yr service.
Rattle from tailgate from new. Took painstaking trial and error adjustment to fix. Fine since.
Creaks from bonnet stays just below A pillars. Improved by adjustments.

At great risk... nothing at all... except the juddery rear wiper now sorted.

I do experience very spongy brakes when cold. OPC say they’re fine but I still have my doubts. Anything similar or thoughts?
