Engine reliability and common problems:
This is a simple and reliable engine with an impressive lifespan when properly maintained. However, many of its issues stem from air leaks, so checking hoses and the intake manifold is essential. The ignition system components also have a limited service life, requiring periodic attention. Poor starting is often caused by a leaky fuel injector, while after 200,000 km, oil consumption due to coked piston rings is a common occurrence.A slight vibration at idle is a characteristic feature of this engine. Other reported issues include fluctuating idle, abnormal oil consumption, and knocking noises from the engine. To prevent oil leaks, timely diagnostics and replacement of the alternator housing gasket or crankshaft seal are recommended. Addressing excessive oil consumption typically involves replacing valve stem seals every 100,000 km. Neglecting this can lead to a loss of seal integrity in oil supply lines and complete wear of the seals.
It is advisable to use high-quality, oil-resistant original rings, as they are more durable than aftermarket alternatives. Knocking noises in the engine are often linked to faults in the hydraulic lifters, which may require repair or replacement. With regular maintenance and attention to these common issues, the engine can remain highly reliable and efficient.
Overall, this engine can last around 310,000 to 520,000 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.
