Engine reliability and common problems:
This engine offers a good balance of power and fuel efficiency but is highly demanding in terms of service quality. One of its most notable issues is excessive oil consumption. While the manufacturer addressed this problem to some extent by late 2011, oil consumption remains a concern, especially in higher-mileage engines.The timing chain has a short lifespan of 80,000–120,000 km and is prone to stretching, requiring diagnostics or inspection of the tensioner through a service opening. Replacement typically involves the entire assembly, including the chain, tensioners, and guides, with later models featuring reinforced components.
The plastic housing of the water pump and thermostat often deforms due to frequent heating, causing coolant leaks. These components have a service life of approximately 80,000–100,000 km and are best replaced together. Additionally, the intake valves and piston rings accumulate carbon deposits quickly because direct injection bypasses the intake valves. Cleaning the valves requires removing the intake manifold, and decarbonization can help restore functionality.
Ignition coils are another weak point, with failures often indicated by a flashing Check Engine light due to misfires. Many owners opt for upgraded "red" coils for improved durability. Overall, while the engine delivers strong performance, its maintenance demands are high, particularly concerning oil consumption, timing chain durability, and carbon buildup.
Overall, this engine can last around 220,000 to 370,000 km if properly maintained, using the correct quality oil and fuel, and carrying out regular checks and maintenance.
The engine has hydraulic valve tappets (lifters), which provide quieter operation and do not require periodic adjustment, but are more complex in design and can cause serious engine damage in the event of failure.

| Camshaft drive | Timing chain Chain motors are considered more reliable, chain replacement usually is required less often than a timing belt, but they are often louder and vibrate more. More service info |
| Timing chain change interval | 90,000 km (recommended) Sometimes manufacturers do not specify timing chain replacement intervals and design chains for engine life. However, once the recommended change interval has been reached, it is recommended to periodically check the condition of the chain and to change the chain if excessive stretching is detected or if unusual noises from the engine or other symptoms occur. |
