Engine reliability and common problems:
This engine, while more reliable than previous versions of the EA88 series, still has several characteristic issues. The main problems include:Timing chain stretching. The chain typically lasts around 150,000 km, depending on driving habits. Diagnosis can be performed using a diagnostic tool or by visually inspecting the chain tensioner through a special access port on the front of the engine. It’s recommended to replace the entire timing system, including guides and tensioners, as a complete set.
Frequent water pump and thermostat leaks. The housing for these components is made of plastic, which deforms over time due to repeated heating, leading to coolant leaks. The service life is approximately 60,000–80,000 km. Replacing both the water pump and thermostat housing together is the optimal solution.
Flywheel knocking. Over time, the flywheel begins to produce noticeable knocking sounds. This issue tends to occur earlier in drivers with aggressive driving styles, but on average, the flywheel requires replacement around 200,000 km.
Despite improvements in reliability, regular maintenance and timely resolution of these issues are essential to ensure the engine’s long-term performance.
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.

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. |
Timing chain change interval | 150,000 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. |
