Engine reliability and common problems:
This engine is not well-suited for low-quality fuel, as it quickly clogs the fuel system. The use of substandard fuel often leads to the failure of expensive ignition coils, resulting in significant repair costs. Additionally, due to wear on the plastic tensioner pulley, the serpentine belt frequently breaks.The engine is also prone to increased oil consumption, which can be observed even from the very first kilometers. To avoid these issues, it is crucial to use high-quality fuel and perform regular maintenance.
Overall, this engine can last around 270,000 to 450,000 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.
