Engine reliability and common problems:
The engine is known for its reliability but exhibits several common issues, especially as mileage increases. Owners report minor oil consumption, which tends to grow over time due to piston ring coking. Individual ignition coils and the water pump have a limited lifespan, requiring more frequent replacement compared to other components. Additionally, the EGR valve often contributes to rapid carbon buildup in the engine, leading to issues like reduced compression and extended startup times.Carbon deposits frequently form in the combustion chambers and on the valves, which lowers compression and makes starting more difficult. A temporary fix involves using a new battery and an improved starter, but severe carbon buildup may necessitate replacing the entire piston assembly to restore performance.
The engine is also noted for being relatively noisy, often attributed to the VVT-i system’s operation. These sounds, particularly from the VVT couplings, are a common complaint but are difficult to resolve effectively.
In models designed for cold climates, the engine features a coolant heating system powered by exhaust gases. A valve controlled by the thermostat directs gases through a heat exchanger to warm the coolant during cold starts. As the engine warms up, the valve opens, allowing the gases to flow directly to the exhaust.
While the engine remains functional with proper maintenance, addressing these recurring issues is key to ensuring its longevity and performance.
Overall, this engine can last around 180,000 to 300,000 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.
