• On the first-generation ASX, steering joints are a common reason for failing German inspection, showing up relatively often from about seven years of age.2010–2022
• First-generation diesels used mostly for short trips clog their particulate filter, and unburned fuel can raise the engine oil level above the maximum; several UK owners report DPF trouble.2010–2022
• The 1.6, 1.8 and 2.2 diesels of the first generation are known for failed turbos, worn dual-mass flywheels, clogged EGR valves and faulty injectors; UK owner reviews include a turbo failure and blue smoke on start-up.2010–2022
• Sources disagree on brakes: brakes lead UK MOT failures for the ASX, while German TÜV data finds brake defects only at a low level until about 13 years.2010–2022
