Engine reliability and common problems:
Honda’s first diesel engine featured an aluminum block, a variable-geometry turbocharger, second-generation Bosch Common Rail injection, 16-valve cylinder head, and a balance shaft integrated into the crankcase. The result was a well-engineered and successful engine, though not without its weaknesses.One of its major drawbacks is the expensive and relatively short-lived dual-mass flywheel. Additionally, this diesel engine struggles in cold weather, often failing to start in low temperatures. The fuel filter is particularly sensitive and should be replaced before every winter to avoid issues.
Early production models had reliability concerns with the turbocharger and the timing chain, which was prone to stretching. Another known weakness is the exhaust manifold, which often cracks around 170,000–200,000 km. Manufacturer acknowledged this as a manufacturing defect, extended the warranty to seven years, and offered free replacements for affected units.
The EGR system has multiple failure points; not only does the valve clog with soot, but the connecting pipe is also prone to cracking. Honda’s diesel engines require 0W-30 oil to maintain proper chain tension—using thicker oil can lead to issues.
While Bosch fuel injectors perform reliably, the copper washers beneath them must be replaced periodically. If neglected, these washers degrade, allowing combustion gases to escape into the injector ports, causing leaks and performance issues.
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.
