Engine reliability and common problems:
This engine is often noted for its excessive oil consumption and significant carbon buildup, which primarily affect intake valves and the intake geometry adjustment mechanism. The oil consumption issue can be addressed by replacing the original pistons with forged ones. By around 100,000 km, the intershaft chain may stretch, and the variable valve timing regulator might fail. Another weak point is the fuel pump drive lifter, which has a short lifespan, sometimes requiring replacement as early as 50,000 km. Additionally, the ignition coils and bypass valve are known for their limited durability.Performance issues such as poor acceleration or starting difficulties often stem from bypass valve malfunctions or fuel delivery problems. Carbon buildup can reduce engine efficiency and requires periodic cleaning to maintain optimal performance.
This engine is also suitable for tuning, with classic chip tuning increasing power from 200 hp to 250 - 260 hp, though it will require switching to a different oil. Advanced modifications, like adding an intercooler and upgraded intake, can further boost output to 280 hp. However, more complex upgrades will significantly reduce the engine's lifespan.
Overall, this engine can last around 230,000 to 390,000 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.
